€50,000

Explanation:

1. Rearrange the formula in terms of P.

F=P(1+i)^t

P=F/(1+i)^t

2. Substitute your known values into the formula. Note that the compounding period is one year.

P=(€88,578.05)/(1+0.1)^6

3. Solve for P.

color(green)(|bar(ul(color(white)(a/a)P=€50,000color(white)(a/a)|)))

:., €50,000 will have a future value of €88,578.05 in 6 years at 10% per annum.
