    Hey, I'm studying a mock paper 1 for HL Maths and not to sure about a certain question involving financial maths. Don't know whether to use the armotisation formula, interest formula etc...

    Peter intends to retire in 25 years time. He decides to save €550 at the start of each month until he retires. The pension fund is offering him a rate of 5.2% AER.


    a (i) Find the rate of interest compunded monthly that would be equivalent to an AER of 5.2%, correct to six significant figures.


    (ii) What lump sum will Peter receive on his retirement? Give your answer correct to the nearest euro
