Annuities are a series of constant cash flows that have been received over a certain period of time. However, not all annuities are created equal. Some annuities adjust the payments based on certain macroeconomic factors. Growing annuities are a series of payments that grow at a rate.

    Constant

    8.80%

    Explanation:

    The growing annuities refers to the series of payments that grow at a constant rate

    And, the expected real rate of return is

    As we know that

    Real rate of return = { (1 + nominal rate of return) : (1 + inflation rate) } - 1

    = { (1 + 19.08%) : (1 + 9.45%) } - 1

    = (1.1908 : 1.0945) - 1

    = 8.80%

    Simply we applied the above formula to determine the expected real rate of return
