Answer:

  $737,289

Step-by-step explanation:

The future value of an investment P invested at rate r per year compounded monthly for t years is ...

  FV = P(1 +r/12)^(12·t)

We want to find P for the given future value, so we can solve for that:

  P = FV/(1 +r/12)^(12·t) = FV(1 +r/12)^(-12·t)

  P = $2,000,000(1 +.05/12)^(-240) = $737,289

Mr. Halpayne needs a present value of $737,289 to support his retirement.
