Answer:
a. $965.74
b. $939.11
Explanation:
In this question we use the Present value formula i.e shown in the attachment below:
1. Given that,
Future value = $1,000
Rate of interest = 6.5%
NPER = 4 years
PMT = $1,000 × 5.5% = $55
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
So, after solving this, the price would be $965.74
2. Given that,
Future value = $1,000
Rate of interest = 6.5%
NPER = 8 years
PMT = $1,000 × 5.5% = $55
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
So, after solving this, the price would be $939.11
