a. If the interest rate was 8%, how much would you have been prepared to bid for the prize?
this is an ordinary annuity:
annual payment = $9,420,713 / 20 = $471,035.65
number of periods = 19 periods
interest rate = 8%
therefore, the present value annuity factor = 9.6036
the present value of the annuity = $471,035.65 x 9.6036 = $4,523,637.97 ≈ $4,523,638

I would ask them if they were comfortable with a fluctuating rate, which though at the moment is lower than the fixed rate, could go up in the future. I would also ask them if they needed to be sure of the rate say for example for a 5 year term like in a mortgage for peace of mind or if they are willing to take a risk with the fluctuations. If the latter, I would tell them that at any time they could lock it in for a 5 year term if they saw it going up.
