Maude worked as a Software Developer for Microsoft for 3 internships. She was just hired full- time after graduating from Concordia in December 2022. On her first day of work on January 1, 2023, she was offered to participate in the company's retirement plan which is a Defined Contribution Pension Plan (DCPP). After having taken a Personal Finance course, Maude enrolled immediately on her first day, as she knows the benefit of putting money away early and having it grow even though she is a long way from retirement. Whatever Maude contributes, Microsoft doubles her contributions dollar for dollar. So far the plan averages a return of 7% compounded weekly. Both Maude and her employer contribute at the beginning of each month. Maude is only 24 years old with plans to retire early at age 55. Maude can afford to contribute $300/month. How much will she have in her retirement plan at retirement?
