11. To find the PV of a lump sum, we use:
12. To find the FV of a lump sum, we use:
FV = PV(1 + r)t
13. To answer this question, we can use either the FV or the PV formula. Both will give the same answer
since they are the inverse of each other. We will use the FV formula, that is:
FV = PV(1 + r)t
Solving for r, we get:

Solving for r, we get:
Notice that the interest rate is negative. This occurs when the FV is less than the PV.
