Answer:

B. $323,900.00

Explanation:

Nper = 300 periods

Rate = 8%/12

FV = 0    

PMT = $2500  

Amount to be Accumulated = PV(Rate,Nper,PMT,FV)

                                               = PV(8%/12,300,2500,0)

                                               = $323911.31

Therefore, The amount to be accumulated by the beginning of retirement to provide a $2,500 monthly check that will last for 25 years is $323,900 .
