What is the present value of $900 to be received 9 years from now discounted bagk to the present at 9 percent S(Round to the nearest cent.)

Explanation / Answer

a.

rate of interest, r = 9%

Future Cash Flow CF = 900

years after which cash flow occurs n = 9 years

Present value = CF / (1+r)n

= 900/ (1+ 0.09)9

= 900/ 2.172

= $ 414.385

Similary other questions,

b.

r= 8% n= 6 years CF=300

Present Value = 300/(1+0.08)6

= 300/1.587

=$ 189.05

c.

r=3%    n=12 CF=1000

Present value = 1000/(1+0.03)12

   = 1000/1.426

   = $ 701.38

d.

r=18% n=5 years CF=1200

Present Value = 1200/(1+0.18)5

= 1200/2.288

= $ 524.53
