Answer: $4,379.83
Explanation:
Given the following details:
Periodic payment = $550
Interest rate = 11%
Number of periods = 20 years
Present Value (PV) = P[(1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r]
Where
P = periodic payment = $550
r = Interest rate = 11% = 0.11
n = number of periods = 20
PV = 550[(1 - (1 + 0.11)^-20) / 0.11]
PV = 550[(1 - (1.11)^-20) / 0.11]
PV = 550[(1 - 0.1240339) / 0.11]
PV = 550[0.8759660 / 0.11]
PV = 550(7.9633281)
PV = 4379.8304
PV = 4379.83
