QUESTION 6
Patric takes out an annuity that he can live from after he retires in twenty years’ time.
He needs R3 000 000 in his annuity when he retires. The bank gives him an interest
rate of 10% per annum compounded monthly.
6.1 Calculate his monthly instalment into the fund if he starts paying immediately
and thereafter at the end of each month until his last payment in 20 years’ time.
6.2 After 20 years Patric retires, but decides not to let the R3 000 000 be paid out.
Instead he decides to withdraw monthly amounts of R20 600 at the end of each
month. He withdraws his first amount at the end of the fourth month. The
interest that he earns over this period is 8% per year, compounded monthly.
Determine how many months can he continue with his lifestyle.
6.3 Calculate the amount of Patric’s final withdrawal.
