A friend has been awarded a settlement in a lawsuit that specifies he be paid $30,000 at the start of each quarter for the next 6 years. Additionally, at the end of year 6, he will receive a one-time payment of $500,000. He wishes to renegotiate this settlement to a single lump sum payment due today. If we assume your friend can earn 8% per annum compounded quarterly on sums invested, what is the minimum amount that he should accept in the renegotiated settlement?

Question

A friend has been awarded a settlement in a lawsuit that specifies he be paid
$30,000 at the start of each quarter for the next 6 years. Additionally, at the end
of year 6, he will receive a one-time payment of $500,000. He wishes to
renegotiate this settlement to a single lump sum payment due today. If we
assume your friend can earn 8% per annum compounded quarterly on sums
invested, what is the minimum amount that he should accept in the renegotiated
settlement?
