Answer:
P=24.92 per quarter
Explanation:
this problem can be solved applying the concept of annuity, keep in mind that an annuity is a formula which allows you to calculate the future value of future payments affected by an interest rate.by definition the future value of an annuity is given by:
[tex]s_{n} =P*\frac{(1+i)^{n}-1 }{i}[/tex]
where [tex]s_{n}[/tex] is the future value of the annuity, [tex]i[/tex] is the interest rate for every period payment, n is the number of payments, and P is the regular amount paid. so applying to this particular problem, we have:
[tex]s_{60*4} =P*\frac{(1+(0.12/4))^{60*4}-1 }{(0.12/4)}[/tex]
we will asume that deposits are made as interest is compounded it is quarterly thats why we multiply 60 and 4 and also we divide 12% into 4, so:
[tex]1,000,000 =P*\frac{(1+(0.12/4))^{60*4}-1 }{(0.12/4)}[/tex]
solving P
P=24.92
