Gross domestic product (GDP) is widely used as an aggregate measure of economic well-being for countries. One criticism of using GDP to rank countries by economic activity is that GDP does not fully capture issues related to quality of life. In particular, some economists argue that France ranks well in GDP terms when compared to other developed nations, but the country would rank even higher if economic well-being measures included quality of life along with economic output.

Annuity payments are assumed to come at the end of each payment period (termed an ordinary annuity). however, an exception occurs when the annuity payments come at the beginning of each period (termed an annuity due). what is the future value of a 13-year annuity of $2,800 per period where payments come at the beginning of each period? the interest rate is 9 percent. use appendix c for an approximate answer, but calculate your final answer using the formula and financial calculator methods. to find the future value of an annuity due when using the appendix tables, add 1 to n and subtract 1 from the tabular value. for example, to find the future value of a $100 payment at the beginning of each period for five periods at 10 percent, go to appendix c for n = 6 and i = 10 percent. look up the value of 7.716 and subtract 1 from it for an answer of 6.716 or $671.60 ($100 × 6.716)
