Withdrawal each month = $11,379.01

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

Value of investment at the time of retirement

= 750 * (((1 + (10%:12)) ^ (30*12) - 1) : (10%:12)) + 250 * (((1 + (6% : 12)) ^ (30*12) - 1) : (6%:12))

= $1,946,494.70

So, we can calculate the withdrawal of each month by using following formula:

Withdrawal each month = $1,946,494.70 : ((1 - (1 + (5% : 12)) ^ (-25*12)) : (5% : 12))

= $11,379.01
