Today, you invest P100,000 into a fund that pays 25% interest compounded annually. Three years later you borrow P50,000 from a bank at 20% annual interest and invest the fund. Two years later, you withdraw enough money from the fund to repay the bank loan and all interest due on it. Three years from this withdrawal, you start taking P20,000 per year out of funds. After five withdrawals, you withdraw the balance in the fund. How much was withdrawn?

You consider paying equal amounts of money into a bank account at regular intervals for 10 years. As a result of your research, you find out the following payment plans:a. To pay $500 at the end of each month for a period of 10 years with an interest rate 12% compounded monthly.b. To deposit $1500 at the end of every three months with an interest rate of 12% compounded continuously for 10 years.c. To deposit $1000 at the end of every two months with an interest rate 12% compounded quarterly for 10 years.For each of these payment plans, calculate the amount of money that will be accumulated in your account at the end of the 10th year (including the last payment). Which alternative would be more advantageous for you?
