    In 34 years time retirement account will accumulate = $106,098.21

    Explanation:

    The value of an annuity investment at a certain rate of interest compounded for a definite period of time can be worked as follows:

    Future Value = A * (1 - (1+r) ^ (-34)

    r - monthly interest rate = 9.5/12 = 0.79%

    A - 875,

    r = 0.79%,

    n = 34 * 12 = 408

    FV = 875 * (1 - (1.0079) ^ (-408)) / 0.0079

    = 875 * 121.2550968

    = 106,098.21

    In 34 years time retirement account will accumulate = $106,098.21
