THEOREM: Amount of an Annuity Suppose that $P$ is the deposit in dollars made at the end of each payment period for annnuity paying i percent interest per payment period. The amount $A$ of the annuity after $n$ deposits is$ A=P\displaystyle \frac{(1+i)^{n}-1}{i}$ --- $P=400$ $n=36$ $i=\displaystyle \frac{0.10}{12}$ $A=400\displaystyle \frac{(1+\frac{0.10}{12})^{36}-1}{\frac{0.10}{12}}\approx 16,702.57$
