NAME

Bank::RMD - Perl extension for calculating the RMD for IRAs.

SYNOPSIS

use warnings;
use strict;
use Bank::RMD;

# Using OO

my $calc = new Bank::RMD;

my $rmd = $calc->calculate( 
  ownerAge => 75, 
  balance => 500000 ); # Will use universal table;

.. OR ..

my $rmd = $calc->calculate( 
  ownerAge => 79, 
  beneficiaryAge => 65, 
  balance => 500000 ); # Will use joint table because beneficiary is > 10 years younger.

print $rmd->divisor; # Will show the divisor used
print $rmd->rmd; # Will show the RMD calculated.

DESCRIPTION

After retirement age, the IRS requires IRA owners to begin taking a minimum distribution. Called the Required Minimum Distribution, this table is big and cumbersome to calculate on your own.
