Answer:

$891.86

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question, we use the Present value formula that is to be shown on the attachment. Kindly find it below:

Given that,

Future value = $1,000

Rate of interest = 12%

NPER = 5 years

PMT = $1,000 × 9% = $90

The formula is shown below:

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

So, after solving this, the present value is $891.86
