Answer:

The future value of your savings 10 years from now= $40,822.55

Explanation:

The future value of the total investment would be the sum of the  future value of each of the individual amount invested.

The future value of a lump sum

FV = PV × (1+r)^n

FV- Future value , r- interest rate , n - number of years

Fist investment: $8,500× (1.078^8)= 15,501.33

Second investment: 9,300 × 1.078^7 =15,733.098

Third investment: 7,100 × 1.078^4 = 9,588.118

Value of the total savings = 15501.33 + 15733.098 + 9588.118=40,822.55

 The future value of your savings 10 years from now= $40,822.55
