An insurance company wants to sell you an annuity which will pay you $750 per quarter for 30 years. You want to earn a minimum rate of return of 6.0 percent. What is the most you are willing to pay as a lump sum today to buy this annuity

Respuesta :

Answer:

$41,623.84

Explanation:

[tex]\text{Present Lump\: Sum}, \:A_0=\dfrac{P[1-(1+i)^{-kt}]}{\frac{r}{k} }[/tex]

C=Payment Per Period

Yearly Interest Rate, =6%=0.06

Therefore, Periodic(Quaterly) Interest Rate, i= 0.06/4=0.015

Total number of Periods, n =4 X 30 =120 Quarters

Therefore, the maximum lump sum that the client will be willing to pay is:

[tex]=\dfrac{750[1-(1+0.015)^{-4X30}]}{0.015}=\$41,623.84[/tex]
