- Shelly Franks is planning for her retirement, so she is setting up a payout annuity with her bank. She is now 25 years old, and she will retire when she is 65. She wants to receive annual payouts for twenty years, and she wants those payouts to receive an annual COLA of 2.8%. (a) She wants her first payout to have the same purchasing power as does $14000 today. How big should that payout be if she assumes inflation of 2.8% per year? (b) How much money must she deposit when she is 65 if her money earns 8.1% interest per year? (c) How large a monthly payment must she make if she saves for her payout annuity with an ordinary annuity? (The two annuities pay the same interest rate.) (d) How large a monthly payment would she make if she waits until she is 30 before starting her ordinary annuity?arrow_forwardYour rich uncle just celebrated his 35^(th) birthday and wants to provide SHSU an endowment of one million per year (forever) starting his 45^(th) birthday (10 years from today).

How much must he set aside each year?arrow_forwardYou currently have $12,000 saved up in your bank account. You believe that 2 years from now, some of your generous relatives will give you a combined gift of $5,000 as a college graduation present. If you can earn 4.5% annual compound interest on your savings, how many years will it take you, from today, to be able to afford the car you'd like to purchase, which costs $25,000?arrow_forward
- Suppose that your parents are willing to lend you $20,000 for part of the cost of your college education and living expenses. They want you to repay them the $20,000, without any interest, in a lump sum 15 years after you graduate, when they plan to retire and move. Meanwhile, you will be busy repaying federally guaranteed loans for the first 10 years after graduation. But you realize that you won’t be able to repay the lump sum without saving up. So you decide that you will put aside money in an interest-bearing account every month for the five years before the payment is due. You feel comfortable with putting aside $275 a month (the amount of the payment on your college loans, which will be paid off after 10 years). How high an annual nominal interest rate on savings do you need to accumulate the $20,000 in 60 months, if interest is compounded monthly? Enter into a spreadsheet the values d 5 275, r 5 0.05 (annual rate), and n 5 60, and the savings formula with r replaced by r/12 (the…arrow_forwardA couple just got married and they are both 25 years of age. They each plan to retire in 40 years at the age of 65. They want to be able to receive $200,000 at the end of each year for 20 years, upon retirement(so their first retirement payment will be at 41)Currently they have a total of $2,000 in cash savings. How much must they save at the end of each year for the next 40 years so as to have enough money to achieve their current goal? Assume the interest rate is 8% and will remain the same. Also assume that they start saving at the end of the first year.arrow_forwardTwo people plan to invest $50,000. Matt is going to invest it in one lump sum and leave it in the account for 25 years to use for retirement. Sarah is going to invest $2000 per year for 25 years and will also use the money in the account for retirement. Is it reasonable to expect that Matt will have more money in his account than Sarah does in 25 years if both accounts earn the same interest?arrow_forward
