Mavis Wanczyk (53) of Chicopee, MA was the sole winner of the $758.7 million Powerball jackpot on August 23, 2017. It was the largest jackpot prize won on a single ticket in U.S. lottery history. She was given the choice of either receiving a one-time lump sum payment of $480,500,936 upfront or an annuity. The annuity option distributes the jackpot of $758.7 million over 30 annual payments, which increase by 5% each year to keep up with the costs of living. The first payment of the annuity is paid immediately and the subsequent payments are paid at an annual frequency. Thus, the (undiscounted) sum of the annuity payments equals the jackpot amount of $758.7 million. a. What are the values of the first and the last payments of the annuity option? b. Compute the present value of the annuity payments if Mrs. Wanczyk has a discount rate of 4%. C, What considerations besides the present value computed above should Mrs. Wanczyk take into account when deciding between a lump-sum payment and…

KA. An individual recently won a lottery and has the opportunity to receive $100,000 per year at the end of the year for the next 25 years. Assuming an annual interest rate of 5% is appropriate, the present value of 1 is 0.29530 × $100,000 = $29,530, the present value of an ordinary annuity is 14.09394 × $100,000 = $1,409,394, and the present value of an annuity due is 14.79864 × $100,000 = $1,479,864. What is the fair value of the lottery payments according to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)?
