You want to withdraw equal amounts at the end of each of the next 20 years. What constant amount can you withdraw each month and have nothing remaining at the end of 20 years if you are earning 7% interest compounded monthly? Select one:
a. $2,943
b. $1,829
c. $2,326
d. $1,200

Respuesta :

The constant monthly withdrawal amount can be calculated by using PMT  function in excel as in =PMT(rate,nper,pv) where rate = 7% = 0.07/12 (Monthly rate), nper = 20 years = 20*12 = 240 months and pv = 300,000

Constant monthly withdrawal amount  =PMT(0.07/12,240,300000)

Constant monthly withdrawal amount = $2,325.90

Constant monthly withdrawal amount = $2,326 (Option C)
