What minimum growth rate will be required to break even


Question:

In singer Whitney Houston's will, she leaves her daughter, Bobbi Kristina, $20 million. Bobbi Kristina goes to the Body Guard Bank where her financial adviser, Frank Farmer, recommends that she use a discount rate of 5% when evaluating her investment alternatives. He tells her about an "I Will Always Love You" perpetuity investment that promises an initial payout of 2.0% at the end of the first year and subsequent payments that grow each year. If Bobbi Kristina invests the entire $20 million in this perpetuity, what minimum growth rate will she need to break even?
