Answer:

$5,026

Explanation:

                           Year 1                 Year 2         Year 3

Cash flows          1,000                  2,000          3,000

Discount factor    1/1.08                1/(1.08)^2           1/(1.08)^3

Discount Factor= .93                    .86                   .79

Cash flows*discount factor

                             1000*.93           2000*.86         3000*.79

Net present value of cash flows

                             930                    1,715                  2,381

930+1715+2381=5,026 is the maximum amount one can pay for this investment

Answer:

I will pay $5,022 for this Investment.

Explanation:

The value of the investment can be determined by calculating the present value of all the relevant cash flows of the investment.

use Following formula:

Pv = Fv / (1+r)^n

PV of year 1 Cash flow = $1,000 x ( 1 + 0.08 )^1 = $926

PV of year 2 Cash flow = $2,000 x ( 1 + 0.08 )^2 = $1,715

PV of year 3 Cash flow = $3,000 x ( 1 + 0.08 )^3 = $2,381

Total Value of Investment = $926 + $1,715 + $2,381 = $5,022

I will pay $5,022 for this Investment.
