Assume that the Canada Pension Plan promises you $40,000 per year starting when you retire 45 years from today (the first $40,000 will come 45 years from now). If your discount rate is 7%, compounded annually, and you plan to live for 15 years after retiring (so that you will get a total of 16 payments including the first one), what is the value today of Canada Pension Plan’s promise?
