Answer and Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
1) Semiannually Rate of interest = 11% ÷ 2 = 5.50% = 0.055
Number of years (half yearly) = 4 × 2 = 8 years
PVIF Value = 1 ÷ (1 + Interest Rate)^Number of years
=1 ÷ (1 + 0.055)^8
= 1 ÷ 1.5347
= 0.65160
PVIFA Value = [1 -1 ÷ (1 + Interest Rate)^Number of years ÷ Interest Rate
= [1 - 1 ÷ (1 + 0.055)^8] ÷ 0.055
= [1 - 0.65160] ÷ 0.055
= 6.33457
Particular PV table value Multiply Amount ($) PV value
Principle value 0.65160 × 640,000 $417,024
Annually interest Value 6.33 × 32,000 $202,706
($640,000 × 6 ÷ 12 × 10%)
