    The present value of our winnings will be 31,047,748

    Explanation:

    We know that we will be paid in equal payments during 8 years which means that there will be no lump sum payment in the end which means the future value of the lottery is 0. We know the payments are 6,250,000, the interest rate is 12% and the number of years are 8. We can input this information in a financial calculator to find the present value of the winnings.

    FV=0

    PMT = 6,250,000

    I=12

    N=8

    Compute PV = 31,047,748
