You will retire in 26 years and can afford to put away 11 % of your salary each year. You make payments at the end of each year, including year 26 30. If your salary over the coming year is $118,930 but you expect it to grow at 4 % per year, and you assume a 7% return (annually) on your 401K, how big will your "nest egg" be at retirement? (Round your answer to three decimal places. For example 1.23450 or 1.23463 will be rounded to 1.235 while 1.23448 will be rounded to 1.234. Please DO NOT do any intermediate rounding and only round the final answer

2. Your aunt invested in a variable insurance product of universal bank. If her annual premium is P40 000 for 10 years, what single amount should your aunt invest today instead of an annuity?

Consider the following statement: "If you are 20 years of age and save $1.00 each day for the rest of your life, you can become a millionaire." Assume that you live to age 80 and that the annual interest rate is 12%. Under these specific conditions, we compute the future compound amount (F): $2,727,149. If inflation is expected to average 3% per year over the next 60 years, your purchasing power will be less than $2,727,149. a. When f= 3% per year, what is the purchasing power of this future sum of money in today's dollars when you reach age 80? b. Repeat Part (a) when inflation averages 1% per year. Click the icon to view the interest and annuity table for discrete compounding when i = 1% per year. Click the icon to view the interest and annuity table for discrete compounding when /=3% per year. a. The purchasing power is $ thousand. (Round to the nearest whole number.) b. The purchasing power is $ thousand. (Round to the nearest whole number.)

If housing prices rise at an annual inflation rate of 3% , estimate the purchase price of a similar house if you wait 4 years before committing yourself to buying one. 4. Suppose when you are 52 years old, the yearly statement you get from the Social Security Administration estimates that your monthly payment at age 66 will be 620 dollars. If inflation stays constant at 2% , what will be the purchasing power of that 620 dollars.
1. Eight years from today, Mrs. Luna will retire. At that time, Mrs. Luna will receive a severance pay of 600 million. Instead of receiving severance pay, Mrs. Luna agrees to receive 100 million now, 200 million in the fifth year from now, and X million ten years from now. If the interest rate is compounded at 8% every 6 months, what is the value of X? (Hint: Use the compound interest present value (initial savings) formula).
