Answer:

PV= $8,048.86

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future value= $2,000,000

Number of years= 64

Discount rate= 9%

To calculate the value of the price in the present, we need to discount the future value at the appropriate rate.

We need to use the following formula:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 2,000,000/(1.09^64)= $8,048.86
