Answer:
The present value of the cash flows is $ 786.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem requires us to calculate present value of cash flows given in the question. The present value can be calculated by discounting cash flows using interest rate (5%) as discount factor.
PV= (190* (1+5%)^-1)+(390* (1+5%)^-2)+(290* (1+5%)^-3)
PV = 181 + 354 + 251
PV = $ 786
(Discount factor = CF (1+interest rate)^-period)
