Case Study #2
Data:
Bill is concerned that Diana’s ability to earn a 5 percent after-tax after-inflation return may be a bit high. Based on the information from the previous case study, he carefully asks two questions.
Calculations:
How much is needed if Diana earns only 3 percent after taxes and inflation?
A 3.0% after-taxes and after-inflation rate is what before tax and inflation rate assuming 2.0% inflation?
