Answer:

correct option is D). $454,513

Explanation:

given data

Annuity = $2000

rate = 7.5 % = 0.075

time period = 40 year

solution

we get here Future value of annuity that is express as

Future value of annuity = Annuity × [tex]\frac{(1+r)^t -1}{r}[/tex] ......................1

here r is rate and t is time period so now put value and we get

Future value of annuity = $2000 × [tex]\frac{(1+0.075)^{40} -1}{0.075}[/tex]

Future value of annuity = $454513.03

so correct option is D). $454,513
