    The correct answer is A.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    One year ago, the Jenkins Family Fun Center deposited $4,800 in an investment account to buy new equipment four years from today. Today, they are adding another $6,600 to this account. They plan on making a final deposit of $8,800 to the account next year.

    i = 0.09

    To calculate the final value we need to use the following formula:

    FV=PV * (1+i) ^n

    First deposit = 4,800 * (1.09) ^5 = 7,385.39

    Second deposit = 6,600 * (1.09) ^4=9,316.44

    Third deposit = 8,800 * (1.09) ^3 = 11,396.26

    Total = $28,098.09
