    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Suppose you wish to retire 35 years from today.

    You determined that you will need $250,000 per year after you retire.

    You will need to make 28 withdrawals.

    You can earn 5% per year on your retirement funds.

    Final value = 250000*28 = $7,000,000

    i = 0.05

    n=35

    A) We need to find the present value of the 7 million:

    PV = FV / (1+i) ^n

    PV = 7,000,000 / (1.05^35) = $1,269,032

    B) We need to find the annual payment to reach the final value.

    FV = {A*[ (1+i) ^n-1]}/i

    A = annual payment

    isolating A:

    A = (FV*i) / {[ (1+i) ^n]-1}

    A = (7000000*0.05) / [ (1.05^35) - 1]

    A = $77501.95
