hey fmh, i need some help on this questions
"What amount, 1.5 years from now, is equivalent to $8500 due in 8 years if money can earn 6% compounded semiannually?"
i really dont know where to start , thinking u might have to use the formula fv=8500 ( 1 + .03)^16
got .03 by doing 6% / 2 (semiannually)
and ^16 by doing 2 (semiannually) x 8 (years)
if someone can help me get started even that be great!
