Our tutors are all volunteers and answer questions when they have time. Please be patient. I haven't seen any tutors online who could answer your questions for several hours. Some tutors work late at night; others work first thing in the morning.
The standard present value of an annuity formula assumes that the payment is made at the end of a period, yours is made at the beginning, so
PV = 5million + 5million( 1 - 1.09)^-14)/.09
= $ 43,930,751.94
notice the first term is 5 million, plus I added the other 14 payments.
