Answer to Question 1

Value of the property upon retirement:
PV = 90,000, I = 7, N = 8, PMT=0
CPT FV = 154,637
Value of the boat upon retirement:
PV = 200,000, I = 5, N = 8, PMT=0
CPT FV = 295,491
Additional money needed upon retirement:
295,491 - 154,637 = 140854
Amount of money needed to deposit at the end of each year:
PV=0, FV = 140,780, N = 8, I = 9, PMT = ?
PMT = 12,765.69
