Answer:

PVOrdinary Annuity = C*[(1-(1+i/100)^(-n))/(i/100)]

C = Cash flow per period

i = interest rate

n = number of payments

PV= 300*((1-(1+ 9/1200)^(-4*12))/(9/1200))

PV = 12055.43

PVOrdinary Annuity = C*[(1-(1+i/100)^(-n))/(i/100)]

C = Cash flow per period

i = interest rate

n = number of payments

PV= 300*((1-(1+ 9/1200)^(-5*12))/(9/1200))

PV = 14452.01
