Solution: C
[[math]]\begin{aligned} & 50,000=k a_{\overline{10} \mid 0.052}+v^{10}\left[(k+200)\left(\frac{1}{0.052}\right)+200\left(\frac{1}{0.052^2}\right)\right] \\ & 50,000=k(7.647284)+(0.602341)[19.230769 k+3846.153846+73964.50] \\ & 50,000=19.230765 k+46,868.54 \\ & k=162.83\end{aligned}[[/math]]
