Multiple Choice
$8,650.65
$8,380.31
$7,704.48
$8,109.98
$9,083.18

Annuity PV Factor (End of Year) = | P [ 1 - ( 1 + r )-n ] |
r | |
12200* [ 1 - ((1 / (1 + 7.1%)^18))] | |
7.1% | |
8650.64568 | |

121840.08 | |
Annuity PV Due (Beginning)= | P + P [ 1 - ( 1 + r )-(n-1) ] |
r | |
12200 + 12200 * ( 1 - ((1 / (1 + 7.1%)^(18-1))))/ (7.1%) | |
130490.7257 | |
Difference = | 130490.73 - 121840.08 |
8650.65 |
