Starting on the day he retires, Bob wants to receive payments of $10,000 at the beginning of each quarter for 20 years. How much money should he deposit each quarter starting today if he plans to retire in 35 years and he makes his last deposit 5.25 years (i.e., 5 years and 3 months) before his retirement date? Assume that the account earns a nominal rate of 7% per year compounded quarterly for the first 35 years and then a nominal rate of 5% per year compounded quarterly thereafter. Round to 2 decimal places.
