Answer:

$172,117.5529

Explanation:

In economics and finance, present value, also known as a present discounted value, is the value of an expected income stream determined as of the date of valuation.

Total years = 3 to 9 = 6years

Present value = future cash flow/(1+i)^n

Present value = $30,000 + $30,000/(1.072)^1 + $30,000/(1.072)^2 + $30,000/(1.072)^3 + $30,000/(1.072)^4 + $30,000/(1.072)^5 + $30,000/(1.072)^6

Present value = $172,117.5529
