Present Value = $57,099.57

Explanation:

The Present Value of a series of future equal amount is the amount the sum in today's terms that would make one to be indifferent. It is the future series of cash flows discounted at the opportunity cost rate of return.

Present Value = A * (1 - (1+r) ^ (-n)) / r

A - annual cash flow - 20,000, r - discount rate - 15%, n number of years - 4

PV = 20,000 * (1 - 1.15^ (-4)) / 0.15

= 20,000 * 2.85498

= $57,099.57
