You want to do some retirement planning. You think you can deposit S2500 once per year in a retirement account and continue this practice for the next 30 years. Assuming you can get a 7.25% return on the investment each year what will the account be worth in 30 years? What would the account be worth if you could increase the deposit amount each year to S3000?

What is the future value if the investment return you receive is 7% per annum? 2. How much can you withdraw each year after you retire (starting with a first withdrawal in thirty-one years) if the investment vehicle continues to earn 7% per annum.
