a. One year
b. Two years
c. Three years
a. One year
b. Two years
c. Three years
Explanation
Given information
Compute Future value of $1,000 for three different time period at a discount rate of 6.5%.
Where,
r = discount rate and n = time period
a.
For a time period of one year, the present value of $1,000 would be:
Thus, Present value is equal to $938.97.
b.
A payment of $1,000 which would be received at the end of two years would have a present value equal to:
Thus, Present value is equal to $881.66.
c.
A payment of $1,000 which would be received at the end of three years would have a present value equal to:
Thus, Present value is equal to $827.85.
