Your turn to apply the Future Value formula

Don't know what your "savings plan formula" is, but this is how this question
is done:

i = .04/12 = .003333..
n = 22*12 = 264
paym = ?
amount = 1,000,000
paym (1.003333...^264 - 1)/.003333... = 1,000,000

I got paym = 2368.48
(should have started earlier, that's a hefty monthly savings)
