Answer: $3,866,182.89
Explanation:
The winnings in 45 years are the future value of the $80,000 that you just won based on the return rate of 9%.
Future Value = Present Value ( 1 + return) ^ number of years
= 80,000 ( 1 + 0.09) ⁴⁵
= $3,866,182.89
Lottery winnings will be worth $3,866,182.89 when you retire.
