Answer:

at 11%. (Present value of annuity) An=$30,876.74

at 16% (Present value of annuity) An=$26,061.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Given R=6000, each year

t = 8 yrs

j(1) = 11%,

j(2)=16%

m= 1

find An=?

We have i=j/m and n=m x t

Formula An={R[1-(1+i)^-n]} / i

={6000x[1-(1+0.11)^-8]} : 0.11

=$30,876.74

An={R[1-(1+i)^-n]} / i

={6000x[1-(1+0.16)^-8]} : 0.16

=$26,061.55
