(his/her sixty-fifth birthday) or a semi-annual annuity for the remainder of the
person's life - i.e., starting 6 months from the date of retirement and including
his/her date of death. Interest rates are 7 percent compounded annually, and a
person's life expectancy has been determined statistically as being 78.5 years.
Calculate the amnunt of the annuity that would make a person indifferent between
the options?
A person joins a pension plan at age 40 (40" birthday). How much will s/he have
to pay into the pension fund each year in order to accumulate a balance of
$500,000 by the time s/he retires (age 65)? Assume that the final payment is on
his/her 60th birthday. Interest rates are 9% compounded semi-annually.
Professor’s Annuity Corp. offers a lifetime annuity to retiring professors. For a payment of $81,000 at age 65, the firm will pay the retiring professor $625 a month until death.
