Lauren will make annual contributions in the amount of $4,770, on average, to a 401(k) over the next 34 years. Her employer will

match 60% of her contributions. She is currently being taxed at 33%, but anticipates being taxed at 15% upon retirement. If her account grows at an average rate of 5.5% annually, what is the value of Lauren's 401(k) upon retirement?
$381,435.69

$395,228.47

$481,057.72

Answer:

  $610,297.11

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem seems to make several assumptions:

  • contributions are made at the end of each year
  • contributions and employer matching funds are not taxed until retirement
  • the 15% tax rate applies to the account balance amount at retirement

Of these, the last is least likely to be true in the United States.

___

Based on the assumptions above, we compute the amount from the future value of the series of contributions, then subtract 15% from that result.

  FV = P·((1 +r)^n -1)/r . . . . where P is the amount of each payment, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of payments.

The amount deposited each year is ...

  $4770 + 0.60·4770 = $7630

Then the future value after 34 deposits is ...

  FV = 7630·(1.055^34 -1)/0.055 ≈ 717,996.60

When this amount is reduced by the assumed 15% tax rate, it becomes ...

  $717,996.60 - 0.15·717,996.60 = $610,297.11

If "x" represents -8 and "z" represents -11, what is x - (-z)?​
Arisa [49]

Answer:

It equals 3, but if you add two negatives inside of the parenthesis, then it equals -19.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to plug in the numbers where the variables are, so it would be -8-(-11).

What is the equation of the line passing through the points (4, -7.5) and (6, -3.5) in slope-intercept form?
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Your answer will be

y=2x-15.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, there you must know the slope-intercept form which is

y=mx+b

m=slope

b=y-intercept

You can also use

the slope formula which is

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

in this case

it will look like this

\frac{-7.5-(-3.5)}{6-4}=\frac{-4}{2}=-2

So the slope is -2

Now we will find the y-intercept

-7.5=2(4)+b

-7.5=8+b   Subtract 8 both sides

-15.5=b

Your y-intercept is -15.5

Hope this helps
