Answer:
$1,828,679.65
Explanation:
The computation of the present value of the perpetuity is shown below;
The Present value of the perpetuity is
But before that as on the start of the perpetuity is determined using the formula,
= Perpetuity Amount ÷ Monthly rate
= $20,000 ÷ 1%
= $2,000,000
Now
Present value today is
= Present value of perpetuity as on the start of the perpetuity ÷ (1 + Monthly rate)^Months
= $2,000,000 ÷ (1 + 1%)^9
= $2,000,000 ÷ 1.093685273
= $1,828,679.65
