Mr. B will receive $100,000 at the end of the 5th year. If opportunity cost is 9%. What will be the present value of the amount today?
Here,
Future Value = $100,000
Number of year = 5
Opportunity cost = 9%
The terms used in formulas
FV - Future Value
PV - Present Value
r - opportunity Cost
n - number of years
\( \begin{align}PV &= FV(1+r)^{-n}\\ &= \$100,000(1+0.09)^{-5}\\ &= \$64,993.14 \end{align} \)
Hence, the present value of the investment is $64,993.14
The present value is $64,993.14
