46. Your younger sister, Brittany, will start college in five years. She has just informed your parents that she wants to go to Eastern State U., which will cost $30,000 per year for four years (costs assumed to come at the end of each year). Anticipating Brittany's ambitions, your parents started investing $5,000 per year five years ago and will continue to do so for five more years. How much more will your parents have to invest each year for the next five years to have the necessary funds for Brittany's education? Use 10 percent as the appropriate interest rate throughout this problem (for discounting or compounding). Round all values to whole numbers.

Annuity
consideration
(LO4)
47. Brittany (from Problem 46) is now 18 years old (five years have passed),
and she wants to get married instead of going to college. Your parents have
accumulated the necessary funds for her education.
Instead of funding her schooling, your parents are paying $10,000 for her
current wedding and plan to take year-end vacations costing $3,000 per year for
the next three years.

annuities and time

(LO4)
How much money will your parents have at the end of three years to help
you with graduate school, which you will start then? You plan to work on a
master's and perhaps a PhD. If graduate school costs $32,600 per year,
approximately how long will you be able to stay in school based on these
funds? Use 10 percent as the appropriate interest rate throughout this problem.
