A depositor puts $30,000 in a savings account that pays 4% interest, compounded quarterly. Equal annual withdrawals are to be made from the account, beginning one year from now and continuing forever. What is the maximum annual withdrawal?
Interest rate, i = 4%/4 = 1%
A = 1%*(30,000) = 300
So, maximum annual withdrawal = 300(F/A, 1%, 4) = $1,218.12
