a) A= Monthly deposit , i = Interest rate, n = no of years

Value of Asset = A ("\\frac{(1+ i )^n{-1}}{i}" )

Sam

A= $2500, i = 0.075 (9%/12), n = 540 ((65-20)*12=45*12)

=$2500 (1.0075)^540 - 1 / 0.0075

=$2500 x 7404.878469

= $18512,196.17


Peya

A= $3000, i = 0.075 (9%/12), n = 420 ((65-30)*12=35*12)

=$3000 (1.0075)^420 -1/.0075

=$3000 x 2941.784474

= $8825,353.42


b) $6,292.85


"\\frac {Required \\; amount}{FV \\; annuity \\; factory} = \\frac {18512,196.17}{2941.784474} =6,292.85"


c) Age = 68.60


=$1,85,12,196.17 = $4500 ((1.0075)^540 - 1) / 0.0075

=(4113.821371 x 0.0075)+1 = (1.0075)^n

=38.60

= 30+38.60 = 68.60


d) Total = $580,542.83 + $13389,281.99 = $13969,824.82

Amount for 10 years

$3000 (1.0075)^120 - 1 / 0.0075

= 193.51 x 3000 = $580,542.83


Remaining Interest

$483785.69 (1.0075)^(35*12) = $13389,281.99
