Respuesta :

Answer:

Amount needed to have in account = 99272

Explanation:

Below are the calculations:

Annual income after retirement, annuity = $8000

The time period or the retirement life = 30 years

The Interest rate earned by account = 7%

The amount in the account at the time of retirement = Annuity (P/A, r, n)

The amount in the account at the time of retirement = 8000 (P/A, 7%, 30)

The amount in the account at the time of retirement = 8000 x 12.409

The amount in the account at the time of retirement = 99272
