To determine how large each payment is, we need to first calculate the future value of the cash payment of
when it is invested in an annuity at
compounded semi-annually for 8 years (from age 57 to 65).
-
The interest rate per period (semi-annual) is
or . -
The number of periods (payments) is
. -
We use the future value formula for an annuity:where
is the annuity payment, is the interest rate per period, and is the number of periods. We don’t haveimmediately, as we first need to calculate the future value of the lump sum.
In this case,
,
, and
:
Calculating it:
Now we set up the equation for an annuity to find the payment amount.
Using the future value of the annuity formula:
Solving for
:
Therefore, each payment that Pat will receive is approximately $4498.85.
