If you require an effective annual return of 6 percent on this investment, how much will you pay for the contract today? $241,531.79 $261,531.79 51,531.79 5271,531.79 Previous Pae Next Pge Page 4 of 20 Save A Go to Submit

Explanation / Answer

Annual payment = $19,000

Number of annual payments = n = 30

Annual rate of return = r = 6% = 0.06

Present value of annuity = Annuity amount * {1-(1+r)-n}/r

Amount to be paid for contract = $19,000*(1-1.06-30)/0.06 = $261,531.79

Hence, correct answer is $261,531.79
