Your only child will go to college 10 years from now. Your salary is $80,000 a year, and is expected to rise with inflation, which is about 3% annually. Tuition is currently about $40,000 a year, but growing by 5% yearly. What percentage of your salary would go to pay for the first year of your child's college education

Respuesta :

Answer:

60.60%

Explanation:

The computation of the percentage of your salary would go to pay for the first year of your child's college education is given below:

The salary after 10 years would be

= 80000 × 1.03^10

= 107513.31.

Now Similarly, the college fees after 10 years would be

= 40000 × 1.05^10

= 65155.78.

So, the percentage would be

= 65155.78 ÷ 107513.31

= 60.60%
