Billy Bob just purchased an investment that will pay him $10,000, $20,000 and $12,000 over the next three years, respectively. If Billy Bob expects to earn 12% compounded annually, how much did he pay for his investment? Please show work.
Answer:- The amount that he pay for his investment will be equal to Present Value of cash flows
Present Value of cash flows = $10,000/ (1 + 0.12)1 + $20,000/ (1 + 0.12)2 +$12,000/ (1 + 0.12)3
Present Value of cash flows = 8928.571429 + 15943.87755 + 8541.362974
= $33413.81195
