    8,478.76

    Explanation:

    This is a time value of money (TVM) question; an ordinary annuity.

    Using a financial calculator, input the following to calculate the PV of the annuity;

    Recurring quarterly payment = 600

    Quarterly interest rate; I = 6%/4 = 1.5%

    Duration of annuity = 4*4 = 16

    One time future cashflow; FV = 0

    then compute a PV = $8478.76

    Therefore, she must invest $8,478.76 today to meet the annuity payments
