How much could you withdraw today and at the beginning of each of the next 3 years and end up with zero in the account

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is 27,408.71

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that:

You were left with a trust fund of =$100,00

Interest rate = 6.5%

Money with drawled = 4 installments

Now,

The step to take is to find you could withdraw currently at the start of each of the next 3 years with a zero account to end up with.

Now,

100, 00 = X (1 - (1.065)^-4/.065/1.065

We now solve for X

Thus

X =7,408.71

By applying or using a financial calculator

We arrange it to an annuity due setting - [2nd] [BGN] then [2nd] [Set] this will set it to mode "BGN"

So,

N = 4

I/Y = 6.5

PV = -100,000

FV = 0

CPT PMT

The payments are known to to be 27,408.71

The amount you can withdraw is $29,190.27 per installment.

Data and Calculations:

Amount in trust fund = $100,000

Interest rate on the fund = 6.5%

Number of equal instalments to withdraw = 4

N (# of periods) = 4

I/Y (Interest per year) = 6.5%

PV (Present Value) = $100,000

FV (Future Value) = $0

Schedule of Withdrawals:

Period          PV                        PMT                 Interest          Future Value

1          $100,000.00          $-29,190.27        $6,500.00          $77,309.73
