First part:
| a | Present value of annuity= | P* [ [1- (1+r)-n ]/r ] | ||
| P= | Periodic payment | 5,000.00 | ||
| r= | Rate of interest per period | |||
| Annual interest | 3.00% | |||
| Number of payments per year | 1 | |||
| Interest rate per period | 0.03/1= | |||
| Interest rate per period | 3.000% | |||
| n= | number of periods: | |||
| Number of years | 10 | |||
| Periods per year | 1 | |||
| number of payments | 10 | |||
| Present value of annuity= | 5000* [ (1- (1+0.03)^-10)/0.03 ] | |||
| Present value of annuity= | 42,651.01 | 
Value today is $42,651.01
Second part:
| a | Present value of annuity= | P* [ [1- (1+r)-n ]/r ] | ||
| P= | Periodic payment | 5,000.00 | ||
| r= | Rate of interest per period | |||
| Annual interest | 3.00% | |||
| Number of payments per year | 1 | |||
| Interest rate per period | 0.03/1= | |||
| Interest rate per period | 3.000% | |||
| n= | number of periods: | |||
| Number of years | 12 | |||
| Periods per year | 1 | |||
| number of payments | 12 | |||
| Present value of annuity= | 5000* [ (1- (1+0.03)^-12)/0.03 ] | |||
| Present value of annuity= | 49,770.02 | |||
| × Present value factor | 0.76642 | |||
| Present value today | 38,144.58 | 
Answer is $38,144.58
