648 CHAPTER 10 Consumer Mathematics in that an investor first pays income tax on the money used to invest in a Roth 401k plan. Like a Roth IRA, money withdrawn from a Roth 401k plan after the individual reaches retirement age is not subject to income tax. A 403b plan is a retirement plan similar to a 401k plan, but it is available only to employees of schools, civil governments, hospitals, charities, and other not-forprofit organizations. A 403b plan shares many of the same advantages as 401k plans. One major difference, though, is that a 403b plan is not necessarily established by the employer as is a 401k plan. Rather, a 403b plan is frequently established independently by the employee with a representative of an investment or insurance company. As you can see from this brief discussion of annuities, IRAs, 401k plans, and 403b plans, many important details can affect your decisions as you begin to invest for retirement. For more information, and for other types of retirement accounts not mentioned here, consult a financial advisor or visit a library or Internet website. Regardless of the source of your information, it is very important to do your own research and ask many questions prior to investing.

A type of annuity in which the goal is to save a specific amount of money in a specific amount of time is called a(n) _______ fund. Sinking 4. A variable annuity is an annuity that is invested in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or other investments that do not provide a(n) _______ interest rate. Guaranteed 5.

Round all answers to the nearest cent. 9. $500 invested annually for 10 years at a 4.5% interest rate compounded annually $6144.10 10. $800 invested semiannually for 20 years at a 5% interest rate compounded semiannually $53,922.04 11. $400 invested quarterly for 35 years at a 8% interest rate compounded quarterly $299,929.32 12. $200 invested monthly for 40 years at a 6% interest rate compounded monthly $398,298.15 In Exercises 13–16, use the sinking fund formula p A r n r n 1 1 n t ( ) = ⎛ ⎝ ⎞ ⎠ ⎛ + ⎝ ⎞ ⎠ − ⋅ to determine the payment needed to reach the accumulated amount. To ensure that enough is invested each period, round each answer up to the next cent. 13. Semiannual payments with a 6% interest rate compounded semiannually for 10 years to accumulate $100,000 $3721.58 SECTION 10.6
