On January 1, Bob just reached age 30. He earned $90,000 at the end of last year. It is assumed that his salary will grow at 1% each year and is paid at the end of each year. Bob would like to retire when he reaches 65 (35 years from today) and expects to live 23 years after retirement. After some basic analysis, you estimate that wage replacement ratio will be 75%. After retirement, the retirement need will grow by inflation rate 2% per year and is paid at the beginning of each year. The investment return (discount rate) is 8%. Keep four decimals if applicable. (a). What's the amount of first year retirement need? (b). What’s the present value of all future retirement needs after retirement at age 65, assuming that he needs the retirement funding at the beginning of each year in retirement? (please show your inputs such as N, PMT, and etc.) (c). How much is the present value of all retirement needs as of today ?
