Answer:

Present Value = $290.20

Explanation:

The present value of a future payment can be calculated with the following formula:

PV = FV / (1 + i)N

Where i is the annual interest rate or discount rate, and t is the number of years until the payment will be received.

PV = Present Value = ?

FV = Payment = $4,400

i = 8.3% = 0.083

N = 20 - 6 = 14

PV = $4400 / (1 + 0.083)(20 - 6)

PV = $4400 / (1.083 * 14)

PV = $4400 / 15.162

PV = $290.1992

Present Value = $290.20 (Approximated)
