Suppose a recent college graduate's first job allows her to deposit $250 at the end of each month in a savings plan that earns 9%, compounded monthly. This savings plan continues for 11 years before new obligations make it impossible to continue. If the accrued amount remains in the plan for the next 15 years without deposits or withdrawals, how much money will be in the account 26 years after the plan began? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.) $
Your goal is to retire in 20 years. You plan to start on this path by saving $200 a month. If you earn 6% annually (using monthly compounding), how much will you have saved in 20 years? Right before you started saving, you were notified by your auto insurance company that you will receive a discount of $20 a month on your auto premium because of your impeccable driving record. If you chose to put those savings towards your retirement goal each month, how much would your retirement account be worth if you save $220 a month for 20 years with an annual return of 6% (compounded monthly)? Please discuss your thoughts on the impact of saving an additional $20 a month over 20 years.

Your employer automatically puts 5 percent of your salary into a 401(k) retirement account each year. The account earns 8% interest. Suppose you just got the job, your starting salary is $50000, and you expect to receive a 3% raise each year. For simplicity, assume that interest earned and your raises are given as nominal rates and compound continuously. Find the value of your retirement account after 35 years Value = $
Your job pays you only once a year for all the work you did over the previous 12 months. Today, December 31, you just received your salary of $60,000 and you plan to spend all of it.
