    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Will pay you and your heirs $14,500 per year forever. The required return on this investment is 5.1 percent.

    a) We need to find the present value of a perpetual annuity.

    PV = Cf/i

    PV = 14,500/0.051 = $284,313.73

    b) Now, the present value is $310,000.

    310,000 = 14,500/i

    i=14500/310,000 = 0.0467 = 4.67%
