Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we use the present value (PV) formula.

The NPER represents the time period

Given that,

Present value = ?

Future value = $250,000

Rate of interest = 7%

NPER = 85 - 65 = 20 years

The formula is shown below:

= PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

=PV(0.07;20;;-250000)

The Future value come in negative

So, after solving this, the answer would be Rs.64,604.75
