Answer:

  • What is the most you would pay for this annuity right​ now?

$ 138.121

Step-by-step explanation:

The annuity formula is as follows:

Annuity : Annuity * ((1-1/(1+r)^t)/r where

r : Rate of return

t : Quantity of years of the annuity.

Annuity : ( ( 1- 1/ (1+0,05) ^ 25 ) / 0,05 = ( 1 - 0,295 ) / 0,05 = 14,09

$9,800 * 14,09 = $ 138,121
