You are asked to find the future value of an ordinary annuity (since the payments are at the end of each period). Therefore we will use the future value of an ordinary annuity formula

\n

$\\displaystyle F=\\frac{C}{i}\\left((1+i)^n-1\\right)$

\n

where $F$ is the future value, $C$ is the cash flow per period, $i$ is the interest rate per period, and $n$ is the number of periods.

\n

In our situation we have,

\n

$C=\\var{C}$,

\n

$i=\\frac{\\var{ipa}\\%}{\\var{period[1]}}=\\frac{\\var{ipadec}}{\\var{period[1]}}$, $i=\\var{ipa}\\%=\\var{ipadec}$,

\n

$n=\\var{years}\\times \\var{period[1]}=\\var{n}$, $n=\\var{n}$,

\n

and therefore we have

\n

$\\displaystyle F=\\frac{\\var{C}}{\\left(\\simplify[unitDenominator]{{ipadec}/{period[1]}}\\right)}\\left(\\left(1+\\simplify[unitDenominator]{{ipadec}/{period[1]}}\\right)^\\var{n}-1\\right)$

\n

Calculating this we find
