Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Although this problem is not directly addressed in the text, its intended effect is to reinforce the idea of present value. In this kind of problem, the student must find a present value in the future, and then discount that renamed future value back to the present value at time zero.
PV = PMT  / (1 + r)n = 3,000  / (1.06)5 = 33,730.40.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D
Explanation: D)
PV = PMT  = 25,000  = 188,401.95.
MODE = END
INPUT 12 8 ? -25,000 0
KEY N I/Y PV PMT FV
CPT 188,401.95
