Answer:

Present value is $2918.88

Explanation:

Given Data:

Amount won=$2,040,000

Number of years=76 years

Interest rate=i=9%=0.09

Required:

Present value=?

Solution:

Formula

[tex]FV=PV(1+i)^n[/tex]

Where:

FV is the future value=$2,040,000

PV is the present value

i is the interest rate=0.09

n is the number of years=76

[tex]PV=\frac{FV}{(1+i)^n}\\ PV=\frac{\$2040000}{(1+0.09)^{76}}\\ PV=\$2918.88[/tex]

Present value is $2918.88
