Stephan is planning for his retirement at the age of 60, at which time he wishes to receive $50,000 per year for 25 years. Given his current age, Stephan would want the first retirement payment to begin from year 35. For this, he plans to save $1,000 per year for next 10 years. An appropriate discount rate for Stephan is 10%. At the end of saving period the amount still required to achieve the retirement goal will be closest to:
a) $30,140
b) $45,540
c) $66,950
Please help me on this question. As per my understanding the investment period will end at 45 and solved various parts of the problem as following.
FV of saving @t=45; $15,937 (PMT= -1000, N=10, I/Y=10)
PV of retirement goal@t=60; $453,852 (PMT=50,000, N=25, I/Y=10)
What should be the next step from here onward?
