Answer:

The correct option is D. $8,311

Explanation:

The steps to reach the deposit ammount of $8,311 are the following:

1) Calculate Future Value of cash flow= 250,000×(1+0.08)∧25=1,712,118.80

2) Calculate the total ammunt to be accumulated by the end of year 45

=1,712,118.80+1,500,000=3,212,118,80

3) Finally you have to calculate the annual deposit to achieve the 3,212,118,80 in 45 years

FV= 3,212,118,80

r=8%

n=45

3,212,118.80= P(  (1+0.08)∧45-1 )                                                                                                                                                                      

                                  0.08

= 8,311. Annual end of the year deposit
