Suppose that $1,000 is deposited each year for five years into an equity (common stock) account earning 8% per year. During this period, general inflation is expected to remain at 3% per year. At the end of five years, what is the dollar value of the account in terms of today’s purchasing power (i.e., real dollars)?
