Answer:

$40,554.50

Explanation:

we can use the present value of an annuity formula to solve this:

present value = annual payment x annuity factor

  • annual payment = $5,000
  • annuity factor (PV, 4%, 10 periods) = 8.1109

present value = $5,000 x 8.1109 = $40,554.50

The School of Engineering needs to have $40,554.50 to fund one scholarship worth $5,000 for ten years.
