You want to be able to withdraw $20,000 from your account each
year for 15 years after you retire. You expect to retire in 30
years. If your account earns 9% interest, how much will you need to
deposit each year until retirement to achieve your retirement
goals?

Round your answer to the nearest cent.
Periodic withdrawal each year after retirement for 15 years = $20,000
Calculating the Present value of these withdrawals:-
Where, C= Periodic Withdrawals = $20,000
r = Periodic Interest rate = 9%
n= no of periods = 15
Present Value = $161,213.77
So, Amount to accumulate to reach retirement goals is $161,213.77
Now, Calculating the Periodic deposits that needs to be saved to accumulate above amount:-
Where, C= Periodic Depsoits
r = Periodic Interest rate = 9%
n= no of periods = 30
Future Value = $161,213.77
C= $1182.72
So, the need to deposit each year until retirement to achieve your retirement goals is $1182.72
