The amount of money that Gary can withdraw each month is equal to $4026.18.

Given the following data:

  • Value of each payment, P = 750,000 dollars.
  • Annual percentage interest rate, APR = 5% = 0.05.
  • Time, t = 30 years.

What is APR?

APR is an acronym for annual percentage rate and it can be defined as a measure of an amount of money based on a yearly rate of interest, which a borrower must pay on a loan or credit card.

This ultimately implies that, the annual percentage rate (APR) would be calculated by dividing the rate of interest by twelve (12).

Rate of interest, r = APR/12

Rate of interest, r = 0.05/12

Rate of interest, r = 0.0041667

Next, we would calculate the present value of this ordinary annuity by using this formula:

Present value, PV = [P ÷ [1 - (1 + r)^{-nt}]/r]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Present value = [750,000 ÷ [(1 - (1 + 0.0041667)^{-30 × 12})/0.0041667]

Present value = [750,000 ÷ [(1 - (1.0041667)^{-360})/0.0041667]

Present value = [750,000 ÷ [(1 - 0.2238239)/0.0041667]

Present value = [750,000 ÷ [0.7761761/0.0041667]

Present value = 750,000 ÷ 186.280773754

Present value, PV = $4026.18.
