Suppose you invest $150 a month for 8 years into an account earning 9% compounded monthly. After 8 years, you leave the money, without making additional deposits, in the account for another 29 years. How much will you have in the end?

You are looking for the future value of an ordinary annuity   at 40 years from now

 

period = 4 / year      total periods = 40 * 4 = 160 periods = n

Interest per period = .04 / 4 = .01    =   i  

payments = 200 per period

 

 

FV = pmt *{ (1 +i)n -1}/ i      =  78,276.53    <===== well short of 1 000 000   that he wants !  (he needs to deposit 2555.04 per quarter)

Assuming the money is put into the account at THE BEGINNING of the month

 

FV = pmt { (1+i)^n -1)/i }   * (1+ i )          n = 8 * 12 = 96     i = .09/12    pmt = 150

     = 21135.76    after 8 years

 

then   21 135.76 ( 1.0075) 29*12  =284 640 .66

 

 

Assuming the money is put into the account at THE END of the month

  pmt { ((1+i)n -1)/i) }  = 20978.42

  

then   20978.42 (1.0075)29*12  = 282 521 .79
