You will receive $5,000 a year in real terms for the next 5 years. Each payment will be received at the end of the period with t

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

$20,229.5

Explanation:

Given:

Amount to be received = $5,000

Time period, n = 5 years

nominal discount rate = 10.725%

inflation rate = 3 percent

Now,

Using the Fischer's relation, we have

1 + Nominal rate = ( 1 + Real rate ) × ( 1 + Inflation )

on substituting the values, we get

( 1 + 10.725% ) = ( 1 + Real rate ) × ( 1 + 3% )

or

1.10725 = ( 1 + Real rate ) × 1.03

or

( 1 + Real rate ) = 1.075

or

Real rate = 1.075 - 1 = 0.075 or 7.5%

Thus,

Present Value of an ordinary annuity that makes $5000 every year payment for 5 years will be calculates as:

Present value = Monthly payment × $[\frac{(1-(1+r^{-n})}{r}]$

or

Present value = $5000\times[\frac{1 - (1 + 0.075)^{-5}}{0.075}]$

or

Present value = 5000 × 4.0459

or

Present value = $20,229.5
