Answer:

C. Future Value of a series of deposits

Explanation:

Series of deposits refers to regular deposits at different time intervals compounded at a fixed rate of interest.

Future value refers to value of 1$ invested today at r% rate of interest for n periods, at the end of [tex]n^{th}[/tex] period.

It is given by the following formula:

FV =  Principle [tex](1\ +\ r)^{n}[/tex]

where FV = Future value of money invested today

          r = rate of interest

          n = time period of investment

Present value on the other hand is the current value of money to be received after n years.
