= $273,402

B).Present Value of the Cash Flows for Annuity Payout is

= Annuity Payment × (1 - Tax Rate) × PVIFA 8%,20 Years × (1  + Rate of Return)

= $37,000 × (1 - 0.26) × 9.8181 × (1 + .08)

= $37,000 × 0.74 × 9.8181 × 1.08

= $290,325

c). According to the analysis, $290,325 is more than the $273,402, So he should be chooses option (b) $290,325 as a payout option.
