How much will you need to invest each year over the next 40 years in order to meet your savings goal of $750,000, assuming you average a 7% real rate of return each year?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Periodic payment = $3756.85

Explanation:

Given:

Future value = $750,000

Rate (r) = 7% = 0.07

Number of year (n) = 40

Pmt = periodic payment = ?

Computation of periodic payment:

[tex]Future \ value = Pmt [\frac{(1+r)^n-1}{r} ]\\\\750,000 = Pmt [\frac{(1+0.07)^{40}-1}{0.07} ]\\\\750,000 = Pmt [\frac{(1.07)^{40}-1}{0.07} ]\\\\750,000 = Pmt [\frac{14.9744578-1}{0.07} ]\\\\750,000 = Pmt [\frac{13.9744578}{0.07} ]\\\\750,000 = Pmt [199.635111 ]\\\\\frac{750,000}{199.635111} = Pmt \\\\Pmt = 3,756.85[/tex]

Periodic payment = $3756.85
