Question 3: Beverly
Walk through the Roth-vs-Traditional decision for a hypothetical household
Length: 200- words. Construct a hypothetical household: age, income, marital status, dependents. Either re-use one from an earlier module's case (Jordan Kim, the Hayes, the Bells, the Carters) or invent your own. Note their current marginal tax bracket explicitly.
1. Apply the decision rule: pay tax now (Roth) if their current marginal rate is ≤ their likely retirement rate; pay tax later (Traditional) if their current rate is > their likely retirement rate. State the rule, then apply it to your household.
2. Quantify the choice. A $7,000 IRA contribution at the 22% marginal rate - how much current-year tax does Traditional save vs. how much tax-free growth is locked in by Roth over 30+ years at a 7% return?
3. Address the employer match first. If the household has access to a 401(k) match, did you capture that before deciding Roth vs. Traditional? The match comes first; Roth-vs-Traditional is downstream of capturing the match.
4. Connect to Bengen (1994) and the four estate documents. Apply the 4% safe withdrawal rate to the projected balance at age 65. Then note which of the four estate documents (will, durable POA, health-care directive, beneficiary designations) your household

Question 5:
In the required reading for this week, Gipson states, "In accounting for the radical change in attitude of many leading colonials between the years 1754 and 1774 respecting the nature of the constitution of the empire, surely among the factors that must be weighed was the truly overwhelming victory achieved in the Great War for the Empire. This victory not only freed colonials for the first time in the history of the English-speaking people in the New World from dread of the French, their Indian allies, and the Spaniards, but, what is of equal significance, opened up to them the prospect, if given freedom of action, of a vast growth of power and wealth with an amazing westward expansion. Indeed, it is abundantly clear that a continued subordination of the colonies to the government of Great Britain was no longer considered an asset in the eyes of many Americans by 1774, as it had been so judged by them to be in 1754, but rather an onerous liability." Drawn from this passage, and the remainder of the essay, what do you think? Was the Seven Years' (French and Indian) War an impetus for the American Revolution? Briefly explain your answer.
