Answer:

Present value= $5,549.96

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cash flow:

Year 1=0

Year 2= 0

Year 3= 800

.....

Year 14= 800

i= 0.07

We need to use the formula of present value to calculate how much this cash flow is worth today.

NPV= ∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]

Cf= cash flow

For example:

Year 3= 800/(1.07^3)= 653.04

Year 8= 800/(1.07^8)= 465.61

Year 14= 800/(1.07^14)= 310.25

Present value= $5,549.96
