Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation:
Use the future perfect (will have + past participle) to show that an action will be completed before a specific time in the future.
Example: The insurance agent told the client that she will have paid half of the amount due by the end of next year.
Why other forms are wrong: "paid" or "had paid" refer to past actions, not completion by a future deadline; "will be paying" describes an ongoing action at a future time rather than its completion.
Correct sentence: The insurance agent told the client that she will have paid half of the amount due by the end of next year.
