b. First payment at year-end $

a.$449,637

b.$408,761

Explanation:

Future value of first payment today or first payment at year-end can be calculated by multiplying the present value by the cumulative FV factor of 10% for 19 years of an annuity due and for 19 years of ordinary annuity respectively.

Future value of first payment today = $7,990 * Cumulative FV factor at 10% for 19 years of annuity due

Future value of first payment today = $7,990 * 56.275

Future value of first payment today = $449,637

Future value of first payment at year-end = $7,990 x Cumulative FV factor at 10% for 19 years of annuity

Future value of first payment at year end = $7,990 x 51.15909

Future value of first payment at year end = $408,761
