Answer:

Option a ($325,203) is the right response.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Required Lump sum amount,

= $2,000,000

Future value of an annuity,

= 6.15

Now,

As we know,

The required amount of annual deposit will be:

= [tex]\frac{Required \ lump \ sum \ amount}{Future \ value \ of \ an \ annuity}[/tex]

On substituting the given values, we get

= [tex]\frac{2,000,000}{6.15}[/tex]

= [tex]325,203.25[/tex]

i.e.,

= [tex]325,203[/tex] ($)
