Mary Goodwin's financial situation is as follows:
Cash/cash equivalents$15,000Short-term debts$8,000Long-term debts$133,000Tax
expense$7,000Auto note payments$4,000Invested assets$60,000Use assets$188,000
What is her net worth? - (answers)D)
$122,000
Assets = $263,000; liabilities = $141,000, so net worth is $122,000. Taxes and auto note
payments appear on the cash flow statement.
At the end of last year, Bill Greer has the following financial information:
Salaries$70,000Auto payments$5,000Insurance payments$3,800Food$8,000Credit card
balance$10,000Dividends$1,100Utilities$3,500Mortgage
payments$14,000Taxes$13,000Clothing$9,000Interest income$2,100Checking
account$4,000Vacations$8,400Donations$5,800
What is the cash flow surplus or (deficit) for Bill? - (answers)D)
$2,700
Income = $70,000 + $1,100 + $2,100 = $73,200. Expenses = $5,000 + $3,800 + $8,000 + $3,500
+ $14,000 + $13,000 + $9,000 + $8,400 + $5,800 = $70,500, so there is a surplus of $2,700. The
checking account and credit card balances would be on the statement of financial position.

higher income replacement percentage in retirement.

Bill and Lisa have determined that they will need a monthly income of $6,000 during retirement.
They expect to receive Social Security retirement benefits amounting to $3,500 per month at the
beginning of each month. Over the 12 remaining years of their preretirement period, they expect
to generate an average annual after-tax investment return of 8%; during their 25-year retirement
period, they want to assume a 6% annual after-tax investment return compounded monthly. They
want to start their monthly retirement withdrawals on the first day they retire.
What is the lump sum needed at the beginning of retirement to fund this income stream?
A)
$389,957
B)
$931,241
C)
$388,017
D)
$598,504 - (answers)A)
$389,957
The monthly retirement income need is not specified as "today's dollars," and no inflation rate
specified; therefore, it must be assumed that the $2,500 net monthly income need represents
retirement dollars, and the retirement period income stream is level. To calculate the lump sum
needed at the beginning of retirement, discount the stream of monthly income payments at the
investment return rate:

Chris and Eve Bronson have analyzed their current living expenses and estimated their
retirement income need, net of expected Social Security benefits, to be $90,000 in today's
dollars. They are confident that they can earn a 7% after-tax return on their investments, and they
expect inflation to average 4% over the long term.
Determine the lump sum amount the Bronsons will need at the beginning of retirement to fund
their retirement income needs, using the worksheet below.
(1) Adjust income deficit for inflation over the preretirement period:-$ 90,000present value of
retirement income deficit25number of periods until retirement4%% inflation rateFuture value of
income deficit in first retirement year$239,925(2) Determine retirement fund needed to meet

(answers)C)
$4,911,256
This PVAD calculation requires that the calculator be set for beginning-of-period payments.
First, the annual retirement income deficit is expressed in retirement-year-one dollars, resulting
in a $239,925 income deficit in the first retirement year. This income deficit grows with inflation
over the 30-year retirement period, and the retirement fund earns a 7% return. The calculator
inputs are $239,925, [PMT]; 30, [N]; 2.8846, [I/YR]. Solve for [PV], to determine the retirement
fund that will generate this income stream. If you enter 2.8846 directly into the calculator, you
will get $4,911,265. If you use the equation to compute I/YR, and then hit the I/YR button you
will get $4,911,256. Either way the answer is clear. The difference is that when you calculate the
I/YR, the calculator takes the interest rate out to nine decimal places. If you enter in the 2.8846,
then the calculator only takes the interest rate to four decimal places.
