Present Value | / | Future Value | = | p (PV of a Single Amount) | Interest Rate | |
/ |
PV of Single Sum = PV of $1 factor X Future Value PV of Single Sum = PV of $1 factor (n=8, i= ?) Future Value = PV of $1 factor (n=8,i= ?) $9,725 $18,000 0.5403 = PV of $1 factor (n=8,i= ?)
The annual interest rate for this investment is 8%
In Present Value of $1, where n = 15 and p = $2,745 / $10,000 = 0.2745, the i = 9%
Present Value | / | Future Value | = | p (PV of a Single Amount) | Interest Rate | |
