Answer: A. $235,700

Explanation:

Minimum value will be the present value of the yearly payments for the next 30 years at 10%.

This is a steady amount so it is an annuity.

Present value of annuity = 25,000 * Present value annuity factor, 30 years , 10%

= 25,000 * 9.4269

= $‭235,672.5‬

= $‭235,700
