Answer:

She will have to invest $4,261.41 every year at the end of each year for the next five years.

Explanation:

Use Following formula to calculate the monthly payment required.

FV = P x [ ( ( 1 + r )^n ) - 1 ) / r ]

FV = Future Value = $25,000

R = RATE OF RETURN = 8%

N = NUMBER OF YEARS = 5 YEARS

P = Monthly Payment = ?

$25,000 = P x [ ( ( 1 + 0.08 )^5 ) - 1 ) / 0.08 ]

$25,000 = P x [ ( ( 1.08 )^5 ) - 1 ) / 0.08 ]

$25,000 = P x 5.8666

P = $25,000 / 5.8666

P = $4,261.41
