    The future value of your savings 10 years from now = $40,822.55

    Explanation:

    The future value of the total investment would be the sum of the future value of each of the individual amount invested.

    The future value of a lump sum

    FV = PV * (1+r) ^n

    FV - Future value, r - interest rate, n - number of years

    Fist investment: $8,500 * (1.078^8) = 15,501.33

    Second investment: 9,300 * 1.078^7 = 15,733.098

    Third investment: 7,100 * 1.078^4 = 9,588.118

    Value of the total savings = 15501.33 + 15733.098 + 9588.118=40,822.55

    The future value of your savings 10 years from now = $40,822.55
