Exercise 1

a. How much will she have accumulated when she turns 65 if she invests in equities and earns 8 percent on average?
b. Jacqueline is urging her friend, Mike Goodman, to start his plan right away, too, because he's 35. What would his nest egg amount to if he invested in the same manner as Jacqueline and he, too, retires at age 65? Comment on your findings.
