    Pay attention and lets see the procedure given the data above:

    r = 0.0101 / 4 = 0.00253

    n = 35 yrs * 4 qtrs per year = 140

    If this is true then we can use the formula for these cases and proceed like this:

    PVoa = PMT[ (1 - (1 / (1 + r) ^n)) / n]

    = 4567[1 - (1 / 1.00253^40)) / 0.00253]

    = 4567[ (1 - 0.70254) / 0.00253]

    = 4567[117.80636]

    Answer = $538,021.66

    Hope this is good for you
