Basically - you want to draw out $2000 dollars per year and but still have enough left in to make sure you can make enough interest to get another $2000 out within one year.

You need to earn $2000 at an interest rate of 9%

So your initial investment must be atleast $22,222.

This is because 9% of your investment = $2000

divide $2000 by 9 to find out what 1% is, then multiply it by 100 to find out your initial investment.

P.s. if you find a high street bank offering 9% tell me :-)

interest= investment* annual rate * years
2000=x*9/100*10
20000/9

the Equation for interest compounded continualy (the way most banks compound interest) is P=P(not)*e^(rt) which means that
2000t=(P(not)*e^(.09)(t)
20000=(P(not))*e^.9
20000/e^.9=P(not)
P(not)=8131.393194811982

20000 = P(1+.09)^10
P = 20,000/(1.09)^10 = $8,448.22
