To live comfortably in retirement, you decide you will need to save $2 million by the time you are 65 (you are 30 years old today). You will start a new retirement savings account today and contribute the same amount of money on every birthday up to and including your 65th birthday. Using TVM principles, how much must you set aside each year to make sure that you hit your target goal if the interest rate is 5%? What flaws might exist in your calculations, and what variables could lead to different outcomes? What actions could you take ensure you reach your target goal?
You want to retire in 20 years. You currently have $200,000, and think you will need $1.5 million at retirement. What annual interest rate must you earn to reach your goal, assuming you don’t save any additional funds?  What annual interest rate must you earn if you can contribute an additional $5,000 per year?  What annual interest rate must you earn if you can contribute an additional $15,000 per year?   You want to retire in 30 years. You currently have $500,000, and think you will need $2.5 million at retirement. What annual interest rate must you earn to reach your goal, assuming you don’t save any additional funds? What annual interest rate must you earn if you can contribute an additional $7,500 per year? What annual interest rate must you earn if you can contribute an additional $13,000 per year?
You are trying to decide how much to save for retirement. Assume you plan to save $5,000 per year with the first investment made one year from now. You think you can earn 10% per year on your investments and you plan to retire in 43 years, immediately after making you last $5,000 investment.   c. If you hope to live for 20 years in retirement, how much can you withdraw every year in retirement (starting one year after retirement) so that you will just exhaust your savings with the 20th withdrawal (assume your savings will continue to earn 10% in retirement)? d. If, instead, you decide to withdraw $300,000 per year in retirement (again with the first withdrawal one year after retiring), how many years will it take until you exhaust your savings?
