Davy, who just turned 55, intends to retire 10 years from now. Together with his life insurance agent, he determines that he will need to have approximately $200,000 in RRSPs when he reaches age 65 in order to retire comfortably. He feels confident that his current RRSP account can generate a return of 3% per year on average for the next 10 years. However, he does not plan to contribute any new funds to his RRSP because he wants to start saving in his TFSA account instead. He therefore wonders whether his RRSP account currently has sufficient funds for him to meet his retirement goal in 10 years.
What is the minimum RRSP account balance needed now for Davy to meet his goal? (Round to the nearest dollar.)
