Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
This is an example of a deferred ordinary annuity because the withdrawals start at a future date (five years from now) and occur at the end of each period, which is characteristic of an ordinary annuity. The deferment period before the annuity payments begin distinguishes it from a standard ordinary annuity.
