You have just won the Multi-State Lottery. You have the option of receiving a check for $35,000,000 every year at the end of the next 22 years. The lottery commission also allows you the option of receiving a one-time payment of $387,143,417 when you turn in the winning ticket. What is the approximate interest rate that the lottery commission is using to determine the one-time payment? (Use spreadsheet software or a financial calculator to calculate your answer.

John-Paul Ramin won $2.6 million in a state lottery. He was surprised to learn that he will not receive a check for $2.6 million. Rather, for twenty years, he will receive an annual check from the state for 1/20 of his winnings. The state finances this series of checks by buying John-Paul a payout annuity. Find what the state pays for John-Paul's payout annuity if the interest rate is 7.2%. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
Suppose you just won the state lottery, and you have a choice between receiving $2,825,000 today or a 20-year annuity of $240,000, with the first payment coming one year from today. What rate of return is built into the annuity? Disregard taxes.
