Expert Solution
Step 1 Concept

Future Value of annuity =P1+rn-1r

 

where :

P = Periodic payment

r = rate of interest

n= number of years

Step 2 Calculation of Future value of annuity

Future Value of annuity =P1+rn-1r

where :

P = Periodic payment = 2000 Euro

r = rate of interest = 5 %

n= number of years = 40 years

 

FV = 2000 euro {[(1+0.05)40-1] / 0.05}

FV = 2000 * {[(7.039989)-1] / 0.05}

FV = 2000 * { 6.039989 / 0.05 }

FV = 2000 * 120.7997

FV = 241599.56
