You would like to buy a new car in five years for cash. The price of the car today is $56,000
and you expect that the price will increase by 6% per year. You plan to save for this car
starting today with a deposit in your savings account, which currently has a balance of
$1,800 and earns 4% compounded annually.You know that you will be receiving an
inheritance of $3,500 three years from today, which you will deposit in your savings
account for the car. If you make a deposit every month for the next five years beginning one
month from today, how much will the deposit have to be in order for you to be able to pay
cash for the car?Tasks:Analyze the differences in the value of the car today and the value of
the car in 3 years. Why will this value change?Evaluate the amount of money you will have
saved and the amount needed to purchase the car. Are they the same?Justify it would be
financially smarter to purchase the car today and pay a 5% interest rate, or wait and
purchase the car in 5 years.
