Expert Answer

 

Future value required = $392,300

Number of years = n = 10

Annual interest rate = r = 12%

Future value of annuity of uniform amount = Annual deposits*{(1+r-n)-1}/r

$392,300 = Annual deposits*(1.1210-1)/0.12

$392,300 = Annual deposits *17.54874

Annual deposits = $392,300/17.54874 = $22,354.89
