An insurance company is offering a new policy to its customers. Typically the policy is bought by a parent or grandparent for a child at the child’s birth. For this policy, the purchaser (say, the parent) makes the following six payments to the insurance company:      First birthday $ 910     Second birthday $ 910     Third birthday $ 1,010     Fourth birthday $ 850     Fifth birthday $ 1,110     Sixth birthday $ 950      After the child’s sixth birthday, no more payments are made. When the child reaches age 65, he or she receives $410,000. If the relevant interest rate is 13 percent for the first six years and 7 percent for all subsequent years, what would the value of the deposits be when the policy matures? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Question

An insurance company is offering a new policy to its customers. Typically the policy is bought by a parent or grandparent for a child at the child’s birth. For this policy, the purchaser (say, the parent) makes the following six payments to the insurance company:

  

  First birthday $ 910  
  Second birthday $ 910  
  Third birthday $ 1,010  
  Fourth birthday $ 850  
  Fifth birthday $ 1,110  
  Sixth birthday $ 950  

  

After the child’s sixth birthday, no more payments are made. When the child reaches age 65, he or she receives $410,000. If the relevant interest rate is 13 percent for the first six years and 7 percent for all subsequent years, what would the value of the deposits be when the policy matures? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
