Answer
A
2 dollars comma 333 point 4 1
B
4 dollars comma 004 point 9 9
C
1 dollars comma 646 point 2 1
D
6 dollars comma 124 point 4 0

Explanation

For monthly withdrawals, use a monthly interest rate of 0.035 ÷ 12 and 25 × 12 = 300 payments. Substituting into the formula gives P = 800,000(0.035/12) ÷ [1 − (1 + 0.035/12)^−300] ≈ $4,004.99 per month. The matching choice is $4,004.99.
