The interest rate is 9% per year. You plan to fully fund the obligation using 5-year and 20-year maturity zero-coupon bonds. How much market value of each of the zero coupon bonds will be necessary to fund the plan if you desire an immunized position? Duration of a perpetuity is (1+y)/y

A pension fund is expected to produce a cash flow of $1,000 at the end of the upcoming year. This cash flow will grow at a rate of 10% for five years and then at the rate of 7% indefinitely. Assume the annual interest rate for pension-related investments is 12%. 1) What is the value of the pension fund?
Mr. Handsome would like to accumulate $1 million in his pension fund. If the annual interest rate is 12 percent, how long will it take Mr. Handsome to achieve the goal? (Assume that he will deposit the same amount of $300 each month into his pension fund, using monthly compounding.)
Suppose you retire with $1million at age of 65. You plan to invest your retirement into a mixture of a riky fund and a fixed income fund, where the return of the risky fund follows a normal distribution. You plans to withdraw $150,000 at the end of every year from this accout. To prevent overwithdrawal at the end, you put a safety cushion of 3 If balance of the retirement fund at the end of year, before annual withdrawal is less than 3 times the planned annual withdrawal amount, you withdraw one-third of the remaining balance. (Hint: use IF function) You want to find out how much you are left at the age of 75. Simulate one time to find out the remaining balance at the age of 17 ( 10 years later) Simulate 100 times, find out average, standard deviation, along with probabilty of the remaining fund is positive.
You can invest in a mutual fund that generates 9% return per year. If you want to have $700,000 in your account 10 years from now, how much would you have to deposit, at the end of each year, for the next 10 years?
