a.
Explanation of Solution
Given,
The
The interest rate is 14% or 0.14.
The numbers of years are 8 years.
The formula to calculate value of annuity is equation (I).
Here,
- FV stands for future value.
- C is for monthly payment.
- I is interest rate.
- n stands for no of payments.
Substitute $500 for C, 0.14 , n for 8 years in equation (I)
The annuity is $6,605.
Hence, the future value of
