Explanation / Answer

where I = 7% t = 7 years a) PV of principal * $1 = amount 105,000 * 0.62275 65388.75 PV of interest * ordinary annuity 7350 * 5.38929 = 39611.28 issue price 105000 answer b) Case b where i= 5% t= 7 years PV of principal * $1 = amount 105,000 * 0.71068 74621 PV of interest * ordinary annuity 7350 * 5.78637 = 42530 issue price 117151 answer c) Case C where i= 8% t= 7 years PV of principal * $1 = amount 105,000 * 0.58349 61266 PV of interest * ordinary annuity 7350 * 5.20637 = 38267 issue price 99533 answer
