Mr. Anwar will retire at the age of 60. He expects to live 20 more years and to

spend Rs. 55,000 a year during his retirement. How much money does he need to save by age 60 to support this consumption plan? Assume an interest rate of 7 percent.


Question # 02 Star Industries has not been growing since past 20 years because of certain legal hazards. It earns Rs. 15 per share per year and pays it all out to stockholders. The stockholders have alternative, equivalent‐risk ventures yielding 20 percent per year on average. What is the worth of one share of Star Industries? Assume the company can keep going indefinitely.

I can figure this out on my slide rule, I don't know what's wrong with you kids.
  1. 1) Performing the calculations, and taking into account the debasement of the dollar brought about by the recent printing spree, he's be better off to die now, and save himself the misery of an old age spent in poverty. If he decides to live, he should plan to get by on $12,000 per annum until he's sixty-five, and then he can increase his spending by adding a McDonald's Happy Meal once a month, with icewater instead of soda.
  1. 2) A company is not the Energizer Bunny, though some think they are. Looking at the figures and facts, and doing the calcuations, I conclude that they should shutter it, and get out of town as fast as they can.
