Calculating present value
Compound interest can have a very powerful effect over time. In this exercise, you will examine how much you need to invest upfront at different interest rates to achieve a financial target. numpy_financial has already been imported for you as npf.
Imagine you want to have saved USD 11,000 after 7 years and consider three different investments, each paying 3%, 4%, and 5% annual interest compounded monthly. If you contribute USD 100 per month, what initial lump sum should you also invest to achieve this goal?
