Kuley bought a new loom today from GlivCo. She will receive a cash rebate of $820 from GlivCo in 1 year, pay $1,470 to GlivCo in 2 years, receive a cash rebate of $940 from GlivCo in 4 years, and pay $3,580 to GlivCo in 7 years.

Answer:

$-2013.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 1 = 820

Cash flow in year 2 = -1470

Cash flow in year 3 = 0

Cash flow in year 4 = 940

Cash flow in year 5 = 0

Cash flow in year 6 = 0

Cash flow in year 7 = -3580

I = 7,12 %

PV = -2013

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute
