Jack decided to put $600 into an IRA account every 3 months at a rate of 6% compounded quarterly. Find a recursive formula that represents his balance at the end of each quarter. How long will it be before the value of the account is $100,000? What will be the balance in 30 years when Jack retires?
◦ B0 = 600   Bn = (1 + )B(n - 1)  + 600;   10 years;   $6.8 million
◦ B0 = 600   Bn = (1 + )B(n - 1)  + 600;   18 years;   $151,860
◦ B0 = 600   Bn = (1 + )B(n - 1)  + 600;   21 years;   $202,355
◦ B0 = 600   Bn = (1 + )B(n - 1)  + 600;   7 years;   $4 million
