You have $300,000 saved for retirement. Your account earns 8% interest. How much will you be able to pull out each month, if you want to be able to take withdrawals for 15 years?
Where:
PMT = Payment per period
PV = Present value
r = Interest rate per period
n = Total number of periods
Here
PV = $300,000
r = 8% / 12 = 0.006666667 per month
n = 15 years x 12 = 180 months
PMT = (300,000 *0.006666667) / ((1 - (1 + 0.006666667)))^(-180) = $2,786.53
$2,786.53 per month can be withdrawn for 15 years
