Expert Solution

Computation of Monthly Savings using PMT Function in Excel:

=pmt(rate,nper,pv,-fv)

Here,

PMT = Monthly Savings = ?

Rate = 11%/12 = 0.917%

Nper = 33 years*12 months = 396 months 

PV = 0

FV = $2,000,000
Substituting the values in formula:

=pmt(0.917%,396,0,-2000000)

PMT or Monthly Savings = $507.93 or $508

 

So, the correct option is D "$508".
