Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -$3188, 32 invested into an account paying 9% compounded daily will accumulate to $5, 000 in five years.

Future value = Principal x (1 + i)t when the interest is compounded annually, and investment will be multiplied by (1 + I)t, but in this case, t = 1, so the multiplier will be 1 + .

Detailed explanation-3: -Solution: We use the present value formula, where A is $20, 000, r is 6% or 0.06, n is 12, and t is 5 years. Approximately $14, 827.45 should be invested today in order to accumulate to $20, 000 in five years.
