What if she left it in there until she retires at 62? What if she waits another 10 years before she starts saving? How much will she have when she reaches 62?
Answer a.
Annual payment = $50,000
Number of payments = 20
Interest rate = 6%
Present value = $50,000/1.06 + $50,000/1.06^2 + .... +
$50,000/1.06^20
Present value = $50,000 * (1 - (1/1.06)^20) / 0.06
Present value = $573,496
Answer b.
Amount required in 4 years = $10,000
Interest rate = 10%
Present value = $10,000/1.10^4
Present value = $6,830
