I will assume there will be 216 monthly deposits (18x12).
The formula I will use assumes that the payment is made at the end of the month, but with that many payments and that trivial rate of interest it will be very little difference.
i = .003/12 = .00025
p (1.00025^216 - 1)/.00025 = 196000
p = appr $ 883
notice that dividing 196000/216 with no interest gained at all = $907
What a horrible plan,
