Retirement: 1-3,4 Retirement Planning Calculations

John and Betty are both age 47, and anticipate retiring when they are both age 66. With your help they have determined that their retirement income shortfall, in today’s dollars, is $35,000. They want to plan for a 30-year retirement period since longevity runs in their families. Assuming a 6.5% rate of return, and an inflation rate of 3%, what lump-sum amount would they need at the beginning of retirement to fund this income shortfall using the capital utilization method?

  1. After meeting with your clients, the Smiths, you have determined that their annual retirement income need, net of expected Social Security benefits, will be $22,000 in today’s dollars. They anticipate an annual after-tax return of 6% on their investments, and they expect inflation to average 4% over the long term. They also plan to retire in 25 years, and they want their projected retirement income to last for 30 years.

Q

Retirement: 1-3,4 Retirement Planning Calculations

Fred and Wilma need to save an additional $768,064 by the beginning of retirement to make up for their
shortfall from Social Security and any inflation-adjusted pensions to achieve the level of retirement income ($22,000 in today’s dollars, $42,154 in retirement year one dollars) that they desired. Fred and Wilma have 22 years until retirement and they assume to earn 7% on their investments, so the annual level savings amount would be:

a. $13,673
b. $14,673
c. $15,673

1-3,4

A

c. $15,673

Period = 1
Mode = END
N = 22
I/YR	= 7%
PV = N/A
PMT = ?	
FV = $768,064

PMT = $15,673

Note that this is done in the “end” mode, not the “begin” mode. As stated before, unless otherwise indicated, retirement income payments are assumed
to be made at the beginning of the year to pay for that year’s expenses, while savings to build the retirement fund are deposited at the end of the year. If Fred and Wilma deposit $15,673 at the end of each year for the next 22 years, and earn a 7% return on their savings, they will get to the $768,064 that they need. We have already taken inflation into account when we calculated the $768,064, so we do not concern ourselves with it in this calculation; all that is needed is the rate of return.

Retirement: 1-3,4 Retirement Planning Calculations

Fred and Wilma need a lump-sum of $768,064 at the beginning of retirement 22 years from now, and that the inflation rate is 3%, and the rate of return 7%. There are three steps in the serial payment calculation:

A
Step 1
Period = 1
Mode = BEG
N = 22
I/YR	= 3%
PV = ?
PMT = $0	
FV = $768,064

PV = $400,847

Step 2:
Period = 1
Mode = END
N = 22
I/YR	= 3.8835%
PV = $0
PMT = ?	
FV = $400,847

PMT = $11,863.24

Step 3:
$11,863.24 * 1.03 = $12,219.14
