3. You want to save enough money to retire as a millionaire. (Age now is 30)
a. If you could earn 10% with common stocks, how much would you have to set aside per year to have $1,000,000 when you are 65?
b. If you were going to make deposit monthly, how much would you have to set aside per month to have $1,000,000 when you are 65?
c. What type of a problem is this?
a. If you could earn 10% with common stocks, how much would you have to set aside per year to have $1,000,000 when you are 65?
n = 65 - 30 = 35
We should set aside $3,689.7051198926 per year
b) If you were going to make deposit monthly, how much would you have to set aside per month to have $1,000,000 when you are 65?
n = (65 - 30) * 12 = 420 monthly payments
r = 0.10/12 = 0.008333333333 monthly rate
We must set aside $263.3909228272 every month
c) This is a type of annuity problem
