Sagot :

Answer:

$255,093.64

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the present value of $1 million today

Using Financial calculator

PV = PV (rate, nper, pmt, fv, type)

Where,

FV = $1,000,000

Annual Interest rate = 5%

Number of periods = 28

Let plug in the formula

PV = PV (5%, 28, 0, -1000000, 0)

PV= $255093.64

Therefore the Present value of $1 million today is $255,093.64
