Explanation / Answer

a.

We can use formula for PV of annuity to compute required fund size at the time of retirement as:

Formula for PV of annuity is:

PV = P x [1-(1+r)-n/r]      

P = Periodic retirement cash flow = $ 21,000

r = Rate per period = 11 % or 0.11 p.a.

n = Numbers of periods = 35

PV = $ 21,000 x [1-(1 + 0.11)-35/ 0.11]

     = $ 21,000 x [1-(1.11)-35/ 0.11]

     = $ 21,000 x [(1-0.025923626)/ 0.11]

     = $ 21,000 x (0.974076374/ 0.11)

     = $ 21,000 x 8.8552398

     = $ 185,960.04

$ 185,960.04 of fund is needed at the time of retirement.

b.

The single amount needed to invest today can be computed as:

PV = FV/ (1+r)n

PV = Present value of retirement fund

FV = Fund size after 21 years = $ 185,960.04

r = Rate per period = 9 % or 0.09 p.a.

n = Numbers of periods = 21

PV = $ 185,960.04/ (1+0.09)21

     = $ 185,960.04/ (1.09)21

    = $ 185,960.04/ 6.108807737

    = $ 30,441.30

c.

If interest rate is increased,

In part a and b both values would be less. In other word a less sum would be needed in 21 years for the annuity and a less amount would have to put away today to accumulate the needed future sum.

d.

If r = 10 % pr 0.10 p.a. PV will be:

PV = $ 185,960.04/ (1+0.1)21

     = $ 185,960.04/ (1.1)21

    = $ 185,960.04/ 7.400249944

    = $ 25,128.89

$ 25,128.89 of fund is required for retirement, if interest rate increase to 10 %.

If deposited annually, annual saving amounts can be computed using formula for FV of annuity as:

FV = P x [(1+r) n – 1/r]

P = FV/ [(1+r) n – 1/r]

FV = Future value of annuity = $ 185,960.04

P = Periodic cash savings

r = Rate per period = 10 % or 0.10 p.a.

n = Numbers of periods = 21

   P = $ 185,960.04/ [(1+0.1)21 – 1/0.1]

         = $ 185,960.04/ [(1.1)21 – 1/0.1]

         = $ 185,960.04/ [(7.400249944 – 1)/ 0.1]

         = $ 185,960.04/ (6.400249944/0.075)

         = $ 185,960.04/64.00249944

         = $ 2,905.51

$ 2,905.51 need to deposit annually for 21 years at discount rate of 10 % to achieve the desire goal.
