Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

Generally a graded vesting schedule lasts 6 years. After the first 2 years, the employee is entitled to 20% of accrued benefits (in this case contributions to her retirement plan). Then, the employee will be vested an additional 20% of the contribution benefits per year until the sixth year when 100% of the benefits are vested.

In this case, Jamie would be able to roll out $25,000 x 80% = $20,000

End of year                 % vested

2                                        20%

3                                        40%

4                                        60%

5                                        80%

6                                        100%
