(a) What is the total of all payments received (the advertised value of the lottery prize)?
(b) Instead of receiving annual payments, the winner opts to receive a single payment today equal to the present value of the prize.
Find the amount of today's payment if: (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
interest is 8% $
interest is 12% $
The top prize for the state lottery is $105,000,000. You have decided it is time for you to take a chance and purchase a ticket. Before you purchase the ticket, you must decide whether to choose the cash option or the annual payment option. If you choose the annual payment option and win, you will receive $105,000,000 in 20 equal payments of $5,250,000—one payment today and one payment at the end of each of the next 19 years. If you choose the cash payment, you will receive a one-time lump sum payment of $63,830,111.58. You can invest the proceeds and earn 7%. At what interest rate would you be indifferent between the cash and annual payment options? (Round factor values to 3 decimal places, e.g. 1.521 and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 15%.)Click here to view the PV Table.
