Ken Jones has just won the state lottery. The state offers the following three payout options for after-tax prize money:

1. $50,000 per year at the end of each of the next six years
2. $300,000 (lump sum) now
3. $400,000 (lump sum) six years from now

Calculate the present value of each scenario using an 8% annual discount rate. Round to nearest whole dollar.

6   4.767   4.623   4.486

Present value of $1:

   7%   8%   9%
1   0.935   0.926   0.917
2   0.873   0.857   0.842
