MMMMMMMMi3
VF = PV (1 + E mmI N)
mmmmmmmmj=2mmj j

if,
Pv=2000$
I1=9%
N1=1 month
I2=6%
N2=2 months
I3=8%
N3=3 months

find VF

VF = 2000(1+(0.09x1/12) + (0.06x2/12) + (0.08x3/12))

VF = 2000(1+0.0075+0.01+0.02)

VF = 2000(1.0375)

VF = 2075

****************

I'm hoping I got it right, but something is bugging me.

Thanks a whole bunch,

(p.s. I tried writing using the codes and couldn't figure it out, is there a website or FAQ on this?

I'm sorry, your writing is sort of not clear. Learn LaTeX, it doesn't take much time before you grasp everything. Here's a tutorial:

Thank you so much I will do that ASAP.

This is not perfect but it should be more readable.

$ VF = PV (1 + \sum_{j\ = \ 2}^3 I_{j} N_{j})$

IF:
$ PV = 2000\$ $
$ I_{1} = 9\% $
$ N_{1} = 1 month $
$ I_{2} = 6\% $
$ N_{2} = 2months $
$ I_{3} = 8\% $
$ N_{3} = 3months $

find VF

VF = 2000(1+(0.09x1/12) + (0.06x2/12) + (0.08x3/12))

VF = 2000(1+0.0075+0.01+0.02)

VF = 2000(1.0375)

VF = 2075

Thanks a whole bunch,

Using the corrected future value formula, looks good to me.

Thank you and I'm sorry for writing it wrong, I'd actually copy it wrong on my homework... duh
