Quantitative Problem 2: You and your wife are making plans for retirement. You plan on living 25 years after you retire and would like to have $95,000 annually on which to live. Your first withdrawal will be made one year after you retire and you anticipate that your retirement account will earn 10% annually. a. What amount do you need in your retirement account the day you retire? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations. $ b. Assume that your first withdrawal will be made the day you retire. Under this assumption, what amount do you now need in your retirement account the day you retire? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations. Time Value of Money: Annuities Many assets provide a series of cash flows over time; and many obligations require a series of payments. When the payments are equal and are made at fixed intervals, the series is an annuity. There are three types of annuities: (1) Ordinary (deferred) annuity, (2) Annuity due, and (3) Growing annuity. One can find an annuity's future and present values, the interest rate built into annuity contracts, and the length time it takes reach a financial goal using an annuity. Growing annuities are often used in the area of financial planning. Their analysis is more complex and often easier solved using a financial spreadsheet, so we will limit our discussion here to the first two types of annuities. the end of the annuity period if each payment (PMT) were invested at a given interest rate and held to the end of The future value of an ordinary annuity, FVAN, is the total amount one would have the annuity period. The equation is: Each payment of an annuity due is compounded for on✔ -Select- -Select- period. The equation is: less additional (1+1). FVAN PMT T[a+p²-1] period, so the future value of an annuity due s equal to the future value of an ordinary annuity compounded for one FVAdue=FVAordinary (1+1) The present value of an ordinary annuity, PVAN, is the value today that would be equivalent to the annuity payments (PMT) received at fixed intervals over the annuity period. The equation is: 1- PMT+N PVAN Each payment of an annuity due is discounted for one -Select- + period, so the present value of an annuity due is equal to the present value of an ordinary annuity multiplied by (1 + I). The equation is: PVA due = PVA ordinary (1+1) One can solve for payments (PMT), periods (N), and interest rates (I) for annuities. The easiest way to solve for these variables with a financial calculator or a spreadsheet.
