Answer:

The perpetuity payment per year was $2030

Step-by-step explanation:

A perpetuity is a series of cash flows that are constant, occur after equal intervals of time and are for infinite period of time or are perpetual. Thus, it is like and annuity but with an infinite time period. The formula for the present value of of perpetuity is,

PV of Perpetuity = Cash Flow / r

Where,

  • r is the required rate of return

As we already know the present value of perpetuity and the required rate of return, we can input these values in the formula to calculate the annual perpetuity payment or cash flow.

29000 = Cash Flow / 0.07

29000 * 0.07 = Cash Flow

Cash Flow = $2030
