Answer: $70,882.98
Explanation:
Present value of note = Present value of interest payments + Present value of face value
Present value of interest payment:
First calculate the interest:
= 5% * 74,000
= $3,700
This amount is constant so is an annuity
Present value = 3,700 * Present value interest factor of annuity, 5 years, 6%
= 3,700 * 4.2124
= $15,585.88
Present value of face value :
= 74,000 / (1 + 6%)⁵
= $55,297.10
Present value of note:
= 15,585.88 + 55,297.10
= $70,882.98
