Homework answers / question archive / Aaron contributed $3000 to his RRSP at the end of every half-year
Aaron contributed $3000 to his RRSP at the end of every half-year. What was the value of his RRSP after 11.5 years if the RRSP grew at 2.5% compounded semiannually? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Computation of the value of the RRSP after 11.5 years:-
FV = PV*(1+rate)^n
Here,
n = 11.5*2 = 23 years (semiannual)
Rate = 2.5%/2 = 1.25% (semiannual)
FV = $3000*(1+1.25%)^23
= $3000*1.3307
= $3,992.15
