How much money do you need to save each year to be a millionaire by the time you are 65 if you can earn an interest rate of 8% and you start saving when you were born? Please use two decimals rounded up.
PV = Amount required = $1,000,0000
n = 65 years
r = interest rate = 8%
P = Annual savings
Annual savings can be calculated using the below formula
P = [r*PV] / [1 - (1+r)^-n]
= [8%*$1,000,000] / [1 - (1+8%)^-65]
= $80,000 / 0.99327865955
= $80,541.3458055
Therefore, amount required to save each year is $80,541.35
