b) If Lesly’s grandmother will give him $5,000 at the beginning of each year for the next 10 years, what is the present value of this sum if the discount rate is 10%?
P = | Periodic Payments |
r = | rate of interest |
n = | no of periods |
Ans 1 a) | |
Annuity PV Factor (End of Period) = | P [ 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ] |
r | |
25000* ( 1 - ((1 / (1 + 7%)^9))) | |
7% | |
11401.65644 | |
0.07 | |
162880.81 | |
Ans 1 b) | |
Annuity PV Due (Beginning)= | P + ( P [ 1 - ( 1 + r )^-(n-1) ] / r ) |
5000 + 5000 * ( 1 - ((1 / (1 + 10%)^(10-1))))/ (10%) | |
