Respuesta :

Answer:

present value of perpetuity = $29615.93

Explanation:

given data

pay = $300 per year

interest rate = 3%

solution

we get here present value payment after 5 year is

present value = [tex]\frac{future\ value}{1+ discount\ rate }[/tex] ...........1

present value = [tex]\frac{1000}{(1+0.03)^5}[/tex]

present value = $862.60

and

now we get present value on purchase date

present value = [tex]\frac{payment}{interest\ rate}[/tex]   ......2

present value = [tex]\frac{862.60}{0.03}[/tex]

present value = $28753.33

and

present value of perpetuity is

present value of perpetuity =  $862.60 + $28753.33

present value of perpetuity = $29615.93
