How much will be in your account after 10 years? 2. You must make a payment of $1,280.02 in 10 years. To get the money for this payment, you will make five equal deposits, beginning today and for the following 4 quarters, in a bank that pays a nominal interest rate of 14% with quarterly compounding.
