Roy and Barbara are near retirement. They have a joint life expectancy of 25 years in retirement. Barbara anticipates their annual income in retirement will need to increase each year at the rate of inflation, which they assume is 4%. Based on the assumption that their first year retirement need, beginning on the first day of retirement, for annual income will be $85,000, of which they have $37,500 available from other sources, and an annual after-tax rate of return of 6.5%, calculate the total amount that needs to be in place when Roy and Barbara begin their retirement.
