Answer:

This problem requires us tell how much is owed after 1 year, 3 years, 7 years, and 20 years. This can be calculated using simple compounding formula given below.

Liability after 1 year

DF = $ 325 (1+4%)^1 = $ 338

Liability after 3 year

DF = $ 325 (1+4%)^3 = $ 366

Liability after 7 year

DF = $ 325 (1+4%)^7 = $ 428

Liability after 20 year

DF = $ 325 (1+4%)^20 = $ 712
