At 24, you finish college and are fortunate enough to have a job waiting for you. Your first job has a starting salary of $75,000 per year. This salary is expected to increase by $5,000 each year. You decide to start saving for retirement right away. Each year you invest 5% of the year's salary in an account that earns 10% interest, compounded yearly. For simplicity, assume the deposit is made at the END of each year (so if age 24 is t = 0, then the first deposit will be at age 25). If you continue to save in this manner, how much will be in your retirement account immediately after you make the deposit at age 45?
