Determine the combined present value as of December 31, 2021, of the following four payments to be received at the end of each of the designated years, assuming an annual interest rate of 8%. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor (s) from the tables provided. Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar amount.)

Explanation:

Present Value:The worth today of a sum receivable or payable in the future is called Present Value. It is premised on the concept of time value of money - that $1 today is worth more than $1 tomorrow. Why?

Because of the opportunity to invest; if invested, the $1 of today would earn interest so making it worth more than $1 dollar on the maturity day.

To calculate the present value of a future cash flow, we simply adiscount it using an appropriate discount rate which is the required rate of return. The discount rate is 8% in this question.

We can quickly calculate the Present Value (PV) using this formula:

PV = FV * (1+r) ^ (-n)

where FV - Future value, r - interest rate - 8%, n - number of years.

We can now apply these concepts to this question:

Year Present Value

2022 9000 * (1.08) ^ (-1) 8,333.3

2023 9,600 * (1.08) ^ (-2) 8230.5

2025 11,300 * (1.08) ^ (-4) 8305.8

2027 13,400 * (1.08) ^ (-6) 8,444.3

Combined present value 33,313.9
