Upon retirement, she is entitled to receive an annual end of year payment of $42,000 for exactly 20 years. If she dies prior to the end of the 20 year period the annual payments will pass to her heirs. During the 12 year accumulation period, Sunrise wishes to fund the annuity by making equal, annual, end of year deposits into an account earning 9% interest.
