a. If you believe you can earn 7% a year, on average, between now and the time your child starts college, how much will you have to invest each year between now and then in order to reach your target? b. It appears the annual payment required to reach your target is more that you can afford. If the most you can afford to invest each year is $2,000 what average annual rate of return must you earn in order to reach your target?
