HANDOUT 9 – 4 SOLUTION
PRESENT AND FUTURE VALUES
1. What is the present value of $3,000 received 5 years from now, assuming 20% interest?
n =5; i = 20%; Single payment = $3,000
Present value factor of $1 from Table C.2 = 0.4019
0.4019 x $3,000 = $1,206
2. What is the present value of an annuity of $50,000 received over 20 years, assuming 9% interest?
n =20; i = 9%; Payments = $50,000 each
Present value factor of annuity of $1 from Table C.4 = 9.1285
9.1285 x $50,000 = $456,425
3. What is the future value of $12,000, invested now at 10%, at maturity in 3 years?
n =3; i = 10%; Single payment = $12,000
Future value of annuity of $1 factor from Table C.3 = 1.3310
15.1929 x $12,000 = $15,972
4. What is the future value of an annuity of $7,500, invested at 12%, at maturity in 5 years?
n =5; i = 12%; Payments = $7,500 each
Future value factor of annuity of $1 from Table C.3 = 6.3528
6.3528 x $7,500 = $47,646
