Answer:
PV= $35,590.69
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the future value using the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i + {[A*(1+i)^n]-A}
A= annual payment
FV= {7,900*[(1.055^5) - 1]} / 0.055 + {[7,900*(1.055^5)] - 7,900}
FV= 44,090.62 + 2,424.98
FV= 46,515.6
Now, we can determine the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 46,515.6 / (1.055^5)
PV= $35,590.69
