Explanation / Answer

Year Cash flow (A) Discounting Factor @ 2% (B) P V of Cashflows (A*B) 0 -500 1 -     500.00 1-20 70 16.35413    1,144.79 NPV       644.79 For the year 0 the discounting factor will be 1 For calculating PVAF, use the following formula PV Annuity Factor= (1-(1+r)^-n)/r where r= discounting rate= 2% or 0.02 n= no of years= 20 Annuity Factor= ((1-(1+0.02)^-20)/0.02 = (1-(1.02)^-20))/0.02 = (1-0.672971)/0.02 = 0.327029/0.02 = 16.35413
