You want to be able to withdraw \( \$ 35,000 \) from your account each year for 30 years after you retire. You expect to retire in 20 years. If your account earns \( 7 \% \) interest, how much will you need to deposit each year until retirement to achieve your retirement goals?

To find out how much you will need to deposit each year until retirement, we first need to calculate the total amount needed at retirement to withdraw \( \$ 35,000 \) annually for 30 years at an interest rate of \( 7\% \). The total amount \( S \) required at retirement can be found using the formula for the present value of an annuity: \[ S = \frac{C \times (1 - (1 + r)^{-n})}{r} \] where \( C = 35,000 \), \( r = 0.07 \), and \( n = 30 \). Plugging in the values: \[ S = \frac{35,000 \times (1 - (1 + 0.07)^{-30})}{0.07} \approx \frac{35,000 \times 13.385}{0.07} \approx 6,604,250 \] Now, we need to determine how much to deposit each year for the next 20 years to reach this amount. Using the future value of a series formula: \[ FV = PMT \times \frac{(1 + r)^{n} - 1}{r} \] We rearrange it to solve for \( PMT \): \[ PMT = \frac{S \times r}{(1 + r)^{n} - 1} \] Substituting our values into the formula: \[ PMT = \frac{6,604,250 \times 0.07}{(1 + 0.07)^{20} - 1} \approx \frac{462,297.5}{3.86968} \approx 119,607.83 \] So you will need to deposit approximately \( \$ 119,607.83 \) each year until retirement to achieve your goal.
