Question 4 • Mathematics for Data and Financial Literacy

Yair earns $⁢90,000 a year and wants to maintain 75% of his income after retiring. How much should he save if he uses the 4% rule for retirement planning?

Answer
A
67 dollars comma 500
B
1 dollars comma 800 comma 000
C
1 dollars comma 687 comma 500
D
168 dollars comma 750

Explanation

First find 75% of Yair’s $90,000 income: 0.75 × $90,000 = $67,500 per year. Under the 4% rule, that annual income is 4% of his savings, so he needs $67,500 ÷ 0.04 = $1,687,500. The correct choice is $1,687,500.
