If your account earns 5% interest, how much will you need to deposit each year until retirement to achieve your retirement goals? Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! first you want to find the amount that you need to deposit in your account at the beginning of your retirement so that you can withdraw 20,000 at the beginning of each year for the next 30 years.
next you want to find the amount to deposit in your account at the end of each year for 25 years so that you will have that the amount that you need to deposit in your account.
your inputs for finding the amount you need to deposit at the beginning of the 30 year period are:
fv = 0
np = 30
pmt = 20,000
ir = 5
payment at beginning of time period.
click on pv and you get a present value of 322,821.47. that's how much you need to have in the account at the beginning of the 30 year withdrawal period.
