Description
In this project the students will pick their career and budget out the lifestyles that their
careers will afford them. The students are to pick their future careers and find their
average yearly salaries. They will convert that yearly salary to a monthly paycheck to try
for one month to budget their future earnings after paying for the necessities of life.
Calculators are allowed for this project, and the help of parents, guardians, neighbors, or
anyone with real world experience is welcomed.
4. The salary that the students use will be the average of the 25th and 75th
percentiles all answers are to be rounded to the nearest dollar for the project)
5. Divide the students yearly salary by 12, to find their monthly paycheck and we
can begin.
Step 3 Saving
The students job is offering a 401k through the company. (401k is a saving account) So
your company will match your contributions as long as you put 6% of your after tax
dollars into the account. This offer is to good to pass up; so all students must
contribute. The students must find 6% of there after tax dollars and subtract it from
their monthly paycheck.
Step 6 Transportation
The students have a job so now they need to find reliable transportation to commute
back and forth. The students are to go on edmunds.com and (in the new car section)
type in the type of make, model and zip code of their choice. (For the purpose of the
project the student is only allowed to buy a new car) We are going to pay for our car in 4
years, so the students need to divide their total price by 48 months. Our interest rate for
the car will be 6% so we need to add our interest payment into the car note.
Step 7 Insurance
The students are well on their way to becoming independent young adults. So now they
must purchase a car and health insurance so that they can be responsible as well. Our
car insurance premiums are as follows For cars that have a total price under $25,000 $200 per month, for cars between 25,001 - $40,000 -$300 per month, for cars over
$40,000 - $450 per month. (Students must purchase car insurance)
Our health insurance premiums are a great deal. Regardless of pre-existing conditions or
any other factors everyone pays $200 per month. (Students must purchase health
insurance)
Water Bill houses under $200,000 - $75 per month, Houses over $200,000 $125 per
month
Gas Bill Houses under $200,00 - $120 per month, Houses over $200,000 $200 per
month
Cable Bill (Optional for Students) $150 per month
Step 11 Recap
Organize your work into a budget format. (You have the freedom to decide what that
looks like) The work should clearly display the amount that you are spending for each
step of the project. Then type three paragraphs (at least 5 sentences each) about how
you spent your money and answer the following questions. Is it worth it to work hard now
to avoid having to pay a bill for student loans? Is having a budget what you thought it
would be, do you still think paying bills is easy? Will every months budget duplicate this
first month, why or why not?
