Verified step by step guidance

Step 1: Understand the concept of an immediate annuity. An immediate annuity is a financial product where the investor begins receiving payments right after making the initial investment, typically within one payment period (e.g., a month or year).

Step 2: Analyze the options provided in the question. Evaluate each statement to determine whether it aligns with the definition of an immediate annuity.

Step 3: Eliminate incorrect options. For example, 'The investor must wait a fixed period before receiving any payments' contradicts the definition of an immediate annuity, as payments begin immediately.

Step 4: Confirm the correct option. The statement 'Payments to the investor begin immediately after the initial investment is made' matches the definition of an immediate annuity.

Step 5: Conclude that the correct answer is the option stating that payments begin immediately after the initial investment is made, as this aligns with the characteristics of an immediate annuity.
