To help Janette cover her college expenses, her parents provide her with a monthly allowance of $340. In addition, Janette earns $600 per month from her part-time job. Janette has to pay $200 in rent expenses and $75 per month for her car insurance. She plans to spend $80 per month on clothes, $50 for personal care, and $100 for entertainment. Janette also estimates her monthly eating out expenses at $140, and she expects that $100 will be enough to cover all her other spending. Given this income/spending schedule, how much can Janette put aside within eight months? Assume Janette puts the amount she saves within eight months into an account that earns 4.75% interest per year, compounded annually. What would be the balance of this account in five years? Round your answers to the nearest dollar.
