where ;
FV = Future value
PV = present value (principal)
i = nominal interest
n = compounding frequency in a year
t = total number of years.
Note: for investments that are compounded annually, n = 1, because compounding is once in a year, for those compounded semiannually, n=2, because compounding is twice in a year, for compounding done quarterly, n = 4 because there are four quarters in a year and so on.
Putting, the values into the equation above;
= $733,200 (to the nearest dollar)
