Answer:

$11,080

Explanation:

Use Present value formula to calculate the amount required to be invested.

PV = FV / ( 1 + r )^n

PV  = present Value = ?

FV = Future Value = $35,000

r = rate of interest = 7%

n = number of years = 17 years

Putting all these value in formula:

PV = $35,000 / ( 1 + 0.07 )^17

PV = $35,000 / ( 1.07 )^17

PV  = $11080.10
