Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the definition of an ordinary annuity: It consists of equal payments made at the end of each period for a fixed number of periods.
Analyze the options provided in the problem to determine which one matches the definition of an ordinary annuity.
Option 1: Equal payments made at the end of each period for a fixed number of periods. This matches the definition of an ordinary annuity.
Option 2: Unequal payments made at irregular intervals. This does not fit the definition of an ordinary annuity because the payments are not equal and not made at regular intervals.
Option 3: A single lump-sum payment made at the end of the investment period. This does not fit the definition of an ordinary annuity because it involves only one payment, not a series of equal payments. Option 4: Equal payments made at the beginning of each period for a fixed number of periods. This describes an annuity due, not an ordinary annuity.
