Retirement Planner 2001 is designed to help you plan for a better retirement. It can develop a savings strategy using your 401(k) plan or any other retirement plan, calculate how much you need to save for retirement, understand retirement plans and how they work, understand the time value of money, determine how much income you will need in retirement, and help you determine your options if you aren't saving enough. Retirement Planner accepts credit cards with expiration dates greater than the year 2001. It features updated Social Security calculations for accuracy with respect to Maximum Benefit, Average Indexed Monthly Earnings, National Average Earnings, two bendpoints, and the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA); features reduced inflation factors involved in the Social Security calculation to provide a better estimate; and an enhanced Help file.
This update features minor enhancements and bug fixes. Version 2000.1 has updated all calculations to 2002 tax laws put in effect by the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Act of 2001.
