PS = payment size S = sum you wish to accumulate r = annual interest rate (a.p.r.) m = number of payments per year also the number of compounding periods per year t = time in years r i == interest rate per compounding period m n = m t = total number payments
i = r/m = 0.08/4 = 0.02 n = 8 PS = S i/((1 + i)n - 1) = 30,000(0.02)/((1 + 0.02)8 - 1) = $3,495.29
