How long would it take for Nico to save an adequate amount for retirement if he deposits​ $40,000 per year into an account begin
dalvyx [7]

Answer: It will take Nico approximately 12 years

Explanation:

Payments = $40000

r = 12%

Future Value = 1000 000

Future Value annuity = Payments((1 + r)^n - 1)/r

1000000 = 40000((1 + 0.12)^n - 1)/0.12

40000((1.12)^n - 1) = 1000000 x 0.12

(1.12)^n -1 = 120000/40000

(1.12)^n = 3 + 1

nlog(1.12) = log(4)

n = log(1.12)/log(4) = 12.232510748

n ≈ 12 years

It will take Nico approximately 12 years
