John has just been hired and asked to complete his retirement package. His company is willing to meet his contribution every year (e.g. if john decides to invest 5% of his salary at the end of every year into his retirement fund, his employer contributes with additional 5%, hence john’s retirement plan is financed with an annual amount equal to 10% of his salary) and the retirement fund guarantees an annual yield of 8%. For simplicity purposes assume that John will have the same annual salary of 97,140 dollars for the next 29 years and then retires (assume that there is nothing else to consider, e.g. taxes). If Zach’s goal is to have $3.5 million upon retirement, which PERCENTAGE of his income should he save every year? (tip: the question is asking for Zach’s contribution, not the combined contribution of Zach and his employer) (note: round your answer to two decimal places and do not include spaces, percentage signs, or commas. If the answer is 1.53%, write 1.53 as your answer, not 0.0153)
