You are scheduled to receive a $400 cash flow in one year, a $900 cash flow in two years, and pay a $700 payment in three years. Interest rates are 8 percent per year. What is the combined present value of these cash flows? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)
CALCULATION OF THE PRESENT VALUE OF THE CASH FLOW | ||||
INTEREST RATE @ 8%; So Discounting factor is also 8% | ||||
Year | Cash Flow | PVF of $ 1 @ 8% | Present Value (Cash Flow X PVF ) | |
1 | $ 400 | 0.9259 | $ 370.37 | |
2 | $ 900 | 0.8573 | $ 771.60 | |
3 | $ -700 | 0.7938 | $ -555.68 | |
Total Present Value | $ 586.29 | |||
Answer = Combined Present Value of the cash flow = $ 586.29 | ||||
Note: Assume the cash received at the end of each year | ||||
