Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cash flow= $500

Number of months= 50

Monthly interest rate= 0.07/12= 0.00583

First, we need to calculate the future value using the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= cash flow

FV= {500*[(1.00583^50) - 1]} / 0.00583

FV= $28,928.06

Now, the present value:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 28,928.06/(1.00583^50)

PV= $21,631.67
