Answer:

A)    6,157.18

B  ) 18,611.55

C) 59,501.22

Explanation:

we solve for the annuity which generates a future value of 1,000,000 in 40 years at 11.4%

[tex]FV \div \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1}{rate} = C\\[/tex]

FV   4,000,000

time 40

rate           0.114

[tex]4000000 \div \frac{(1+0.114)^{40} -1}{0.114} = C\\[/tex]

C  $ 6,157.183

if time is 30 years:

[tex]FV \div \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1}{rate} = C\\[/tex]

FV   4,000,000

time 30

rate           0.114

[tex]4000000 \div \frac{(1+0.114)^{30} -1}{0.114} = C\\[/tex]

C  $ 18,611.552

if time is 20 years:

[tex]FV \div \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1}{rate} = C\\[/tex]

FV   4,000,000

time 20

rate           0.114

[tex]4000000 \div \frac{(1+0.114)^{20} -1}{0.114} = C\\[/tex]

C  $ 59,501.222
