질문 세트 1

 

질문 1A:

 

Calculate the total amount of savings needed by age 65 to meet the desired retirement income. Consider the expected Social Security or public pension benefit in your calculations.

 

해결책:

 

Desired Retirement Income Calculation:

  • Current Salary: $70,000
  • Desired Retirement Income: 80% of $70,000 = $56,000 annually
  • Monthly Retirement Income: $56,000 / 12 = $4,666.67

\(\textbf{Monthly Retirement Income Calculation:}\)

\[ \displaystyle \text{Monthly Retirement Income} = \frac{\$56,000}{12} = \$4,666.67 \]

\(\textbf{범례:}\)

\(\text{Monthly Retirement Income}\) = Monthly retirement income

\(\$56,000\) = Annual retirement income

\(12\) = Number of months in a year

 

Retirement Income from Social Security/Public Pension:

  • Social Security Benefit (USA): $1,500 monthly
  • Public Pension Benefit (Canada): $1,200 monthly

 

Additional Monthly Income Needed:

  • USA: $4,666.67 – $1,500 = $3,166.67
  • Canada: $4,666.67 – $1,200 = $3,466.67

 

Annual Additional Income Needed:

  • USA: $3,166.67 * 12 = $38,000
  • Canada: $3,466.67 * 12 = $41,600

 

Total Savings Needed:

  • USA: $38,000 / 0.05 = $760,000
  • Canada: $41,600 / 0.05 = $832,000

 

질문 1B:

 

Develop a savings plan to reach the required retirement savings goal. Include annual contributions, employer matches, and expected investment growth.

 

해결책:

 

Savings Plan Calculation:

  1. Annual Savings:
    • Salary: $70,000
    • Annual Savings Rate: 10% of $70,000 = $7,000
    • Employer 401(k) Match: 50% of contributions up to 6% of salary = $2,100
    • Total Annual Savings: $7,000 + $2,100 = $9,100
  2. Investment Growth Calculation:
    • Current Savings: $20,000
    • Annual Contribution: $9,100
    • Investment Growth Rate: 5%

 

Future Value Calculation:

𝐹𝑉=𝑃𝑉×(1+𝑟)𝑛+𝑃𝑀𝑇×((1+𝑟)𝑛−1)𝑟
\(\textbf{Future Value (FV) Formula:}\)

\[ \displaystyle FV = PV \times (1 + r)^n + PMT \times \left( \frac{(1 + r)^n – 1}{r} \right) \]

\(\textbf{범례:}\)

\(FV\) = Future Value

\(PV\) = Present Value

\(r\) = Interest rate

\(n\) = Number of periods

\(PMT\) = Regular payment

 

Where:

  • PV = $20,000
  • PMT = $9,100
  • 𝑟=0.05
  • r=0.05
  • 𝑛=35
  • n=35 (years until retirement)

\[ \displaystyle FV = 20,000 \times (1 + 0.05)^{35} + \frac{9,100 \times ((1 + 0.05)^{35} – 1)}{0.05} \approx \$876,474.15 \]

\(\textbf{범례:}\)

\(FV\) = Future Value

\(20,000\) = Present Value (initial investment)

\(0.05\) = Interest rate (5%)

\(35\) = Number of periods (years)

\(9,100\) = Regular annual payment

 

Comparison to Goal:

  • USA: $876,474.15 (sufficient to meet $760,000 goal)
  • Canada: $876,474.15 (sufficient to meet $832,000 goal)

 

질문 1C:

 

Explain the role of different sources of retirement income in your plan, including personal savings, employer-sponsored plans, and Social Security or public pensions.

 

해결책:

 

Role of Retirement Income Sources:

  1. Personal Savings:
    • Description: Contributions to retirement accounts such as 401(k), IRA, or RRSP.
    • Role: Primary source of retirement income to cover living expenses beyond Social Security or public pensions.
  2. Employer-Sponsored Plans:
    • Description: 401(k) plans in the USA, pension plans, or group RRSPs in Canada.
    • Role: Employer contributions and matches enhance retirement savings, reducing the individual’s financial burden.
  3. Social Security/Public Pensions:
    • Description: Government-provided benefits based on work history and earnings.
    • Role: Provides a foundational income stream to cover basic living expenses in retirement.

 

Integration in Plan:

  • Balance Contributions: Ensure a mix of personal savings and employer-sponsored plans to maximize tax advantages and employer matches.
  • Leverage Benefits: Rely on Social Security or public pensions as a stable income source while using personal savings for discretionary spending and unforeseen expenses.

Simulate a scenario where the investment growth rate is lower than expected (3% annually). How does this affect the required savings and the overall retirement plan?

 

해결책:

 

Adjusted Savings Plan Calculation:

  1. Investment Growth Rate: 3%

 

Future Value Calculation:

\(\textbf{Future Value Calculation:}\)

\[ \displaystyle FV = 20,000 \times (1 + 0.03)^{35} + \frac{9,100 \times ((1 + 0.03)^{35} – 1)}{0.03} \approx \$585,169.92 \]

\(\textbf{범례:}\)

\(FV\) = Future Value

\(20,000\) = Present Value (initial investment)

\(0.03\) = Interest rate (3%)

\(35\) = Number of periods (years)

\(9,100\) = Regular annual payment

 

Comparison to Goal:

  • USA: $585,169.92 (short of $760,000 goal)
  • Canada: $585,169.92 (short of $832,000 goal)

 

Required Adjustment:

  • Increase Savings Rate: Increase annual contributions to bridge the gap.
  • Delay Retirement: Postpone retirement by a few years to allow more savings and growth.

 

질문 2B:

Adjusted Retirement Income Calculation:

  1. Inflation Rate: 3%
  2. Adjusted Desired Retirement Income: $56,000 \times (1.03)^{35} \approx $159,274.82 annually

 

Additional Monthly Income Needed:

  • USA: $159,274.82 / 12 – $1,500 = $11,772.32
  • Canada: $159,274.82 / 12 – $1,200 = $12,105.32

Total Savings Needed:

  • USA: $141,267.82 / 0.05 = $2,385,464.80
  • Canada: $145,263.82 / 0.05 = $2,420,929.60

 

Required Adjustment:

  • Increase Savings Rate: Significantly increase annual contributions.

  • Economic Changes: Adapt to changes in inflation, market performance, and tax laws.
  • Life Events: Adjust for significant life events such as marriage, children, or career changes.
  • Goal Alignment: Ensure retirement goals remain realistic and achievable.

 

Steps for Regular Review:

  1. Annual Review:
