What is the present value of this annuity if the discount rate is 12%

Answer 1

Answer:

Present value of annuity  = $102,785.2

Explanation:

An annuity is a series of cashflow expected to be received or paid yearly for a certain number of years

The present value of annuity = A×( 1 - (1+r)^(-n) )/r

Where A is the annual cash flow= 25,000

n- number of years = 6

r- rate per period = 12%

25,000   ×   1- (1.12)^(-6)/0.12

25,000× 4.111=$102,785.2

Present value of annuity  = $102,785.2
