Interest Rates...Fixed vs. Variable

Asked by jonmclean2 in Microsoft Money, Investment Software, Tax Software

Tags: interest, variable, fixed, rate, vs

I'm having difficulty with this financial situation. It would help me a great deal to know that answer to this.

What would be an optimal interest solution. If an initial investment of $10,000 and had a fixed rate of 7% rate every year for the next 20 years....would that be the optimal amount of return if the average HAD to be 7% (e.g. 4% one year and 10% for two years)?

Basically if I could choose any variable percentage (0-100) over the next 20 years where the mean was equal to 7%, what would the the optimal solution for 20 years? You could not have a >= negative 100% or else you would have no money left. I have a feeling that a fixed 7% rate would be optimal...but I'm just not sure.
