The formula for calculating the future value of an ordinary annuity (where a series of equal payments are made at the end of each of multiple periods) is:

P = PMT [((1 + r)n - 1) / r]

Where:

P = The future value of the annuity stream to be paid in the future

PMT = The amount of each annuity payment

r = The interest rate

n = The number of periods over which payments are made

in this case

PMT = 2,000

r = .10

N = 40 (for the first question)

You then fill in the amounts, and complete the math.
