Explanation:

Giving the following information:

You need to have saved $1,000,000 in 30 years. You can invest in a retirement account that guarantees you a 12% annual return.

To calculate the annual deposit needed to achieve the objective, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (1,000,000*0.12)/ [(1.12^30)-1]= $4,143.66
