Answer:

The answer is $26086

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Future of Annuity = 2.5 million

The interest rate =5%

Time period = 35 (65-30)

Now

The future of annuity =Annuity [(1+rate)^time period-1]/rate

Thus

$2,500,000 = Annuity[(1.05)^36-1]/0.05

$2,500,000 = Annuity[(4.79186135)]/0.05

$2,500,000 = Annuity (95.83632272)

$2,500,000=Annuity*95.83632272

Annuity=$2,500,000/95.83632272

=$26086

Therefore the amount hat you must set aside each year on your birthday is closest to $26086
