Mega Millions' annuity jackpot now larger than Powerball's...
...given any cash jackpot level. This is because, like Powerball, Mega Millions now pays its advertised jackpot in 30 graduated installments (over 29 years). HOWEVER, Powerball's payments increase by only 4% each year, while Mega Millions' now increase by 5% each year (Source: http://www.megamillions.com/how-to-play ), meaning Mega Millions can fund its annuity jackpot with less cash than Powerball can.
