Answer:

$20.692.24 must be invested

Explanation:

The amount to be invested today is the present value of $1,000,000 discounted at 9%.

PV = FV× (1+r)^-n

<em>PV - present value , FV- Future value , r- rate of return, n- number of years</em>

FV =1,000,000, r- 9%, n- 45

PV = 1,000,000 × 1.09^(-45)

PV = 20,692.24

Present Value = $20.692.24

$20.692.24 must be invested out of the $32,000
