Understanding and Controlling Your Finances Retirement Planning by Marshall Brain This article is one of a series of financial articles and calculators entitled "Understanding and Controlling Your Finances". The Table of Contents contains a complete list of all of the articles in the series. "Retirement Planning" is the honest attempt to figure out how much money you need to save each month in order to have a comfortable retirement. The reason I say "honest attempt" is because retirement planning requires you to predict the future, and we all know that is impossible. For example, what sort of return will your money get over the next 20 or 30 or 40 years? What will happen with inflation? Will Social Security still exist when you retire, and if so how much money will you get from it? It is impossible to predict any of these things with total certainty. However, it is possible to look at the past and make some educated guesses. That is the goal of retirement planning. You make a basic and fundamental assumption that the world will work something like it has in the past. Then you factor in your own optimism or pessimism about the future to correct for the changes you foresee. Saving for retirement involves a long-term effort to accumulate a nest egg big enough to support you during your years in retirement. The goal of retirement planning is to determine how big the nest egg needs to be to support you comfortably. The following graph shows how you how a nest egg might be accumulated prior to retirement and then depleted during retirement:

Understanding and Controlling Your Finances Retirement Planning Calculator This calculator helps you to determine what sort of lifestyle you can expect to have during retirement, by showing you your 401(k) account balance both before and during retirement. The goal is to let you experiment with different savings amounts so that you can see what effect they will have on you during your years in retirement. Salary - Enter your current annual salary or annual wages here. If you are married enter the sum of both of your salaries. Contribution Percentage - Enter a percentage between 1% and 15% that represents the percentage of your income that you wish to withold into your 401(k) account. The witholding may not exceed 15%. Also, a person cannot contribute more than $9,500 to a 401(k) account in any year, so adjust this percentage to make sure that the total annual witholding does not exceed $9,500. If you are married, you can both save up to $9,500 for a potential total of $19,000. Match Percentage - If your company matches your contributions, enter the matching percentage it uses (for example, if your company matches 3% of your salary, enter 3 here). If your company does not match, enter zero. Pre-retirement Interest Rate - Enter the interest rate you expect to earn on your 401(k) account prior to retirement. To give you two ideas, current CD rates run between 5% and 6%, while the stock market has returned an average of 10% or so for many years. For 6%, enter 6 in the entry field. Typically you would invest more agressively prior to retirement and then move the money to less-risky investments after retiring.

CCH Toolkit World Wide Web Retirement Planning The prospect of a comfortable retirement is like the proverbial carrot dangling in front of us, encouraging us to keep going in hopes of a future reward. The only difference is that, unlike the carrot that is always just too far away to reach, a comfortable retirement is actually attainable. While this is encouraging, achieving your retirement goals will not happen automatically. As with most other things, the two key things that you need to do are to plan ahead and to follow through with your plan. Unfortunately, there is no retirement planning resource, including this one, that will provide you with the self-discipline and self-motivation you need to achieve your retirement goals. Only you can determine how important retirement is to you and what you are willing to sacrifice to achieve it. We can, however, provide you with the information and tools you need to understand retirement planning issues. Based on this information, you can then create a retirement plan that works for you. At this point, you will be happy to learn that you are already well on your way in the retirement planning process. Unlike you, most people have done little or no planning for retirement. This is very understandable. It is hard to be concerned about what will happen 30 or 40 years from now when you are just trying to stretch your resources to meet your needs today.

Feedback Tell us how we can make this site more useful. CCH Toolkit World Wide Web Qualified Retirement Plans Qualified retirement plans are set up by employers to provide employees with opportunities to save for retirement . A self-employed person or small business owner can also set up some of these plans, even if there are no employees in the business. Qualified plans are referred to as qualified because they qualify for favorable tax treatment under the Internal Revenue Code. Provided they meet the requirements for maintaining such plans, employers and self-employed individuals get to deduct their contributions to the plan. Also, employees are not immediately taxed on the contributions made on their behalf, they can often make additional contributions on a pre-tax basis, and earnings on their retirement plan funds get to accrue on a tax-deferred basis. This is a pretty good deal for both the employer and the employee. If you are an employee, chances are pretty good that your employer offers a qualified retirement plan as part of your compensation package. According to 1997 data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics at the end of 2000, 79 percent of private-sector employers with 100 or more employees offered some type of retirement program. For small private establishments, 1996 data shows that 46 percent of full-time workers were covered by a retirement plan. These numbers are likely to increase as people realize that our
