Expert Solution
Step 1

Period of investment =42 years 

Retirement amount =$1000000

Annual interest =2.4%

Step 2

Future value FACTOR =(1+r)n-1/r

Future value FACTOR =(1.024)-42-1/0.024

Future value FACTOR =71.15

Future value =Future value FACTOR x annual payment 

1000000=71.15 × annual payment 

Annual payment =14054.81

Monthly payment =$1171.23

This amount should deposits in savings accounts monthly for retirement.
