Answer:

PV of lease annuity is $25000

Explanation:

As the paymengt will be made at the end of the year, the annuity is an ordinary annuity. We will calculate the present value of the ordinary annuity using the following formula,

PV Annuity = PMT * [( 1 - (1+r)^-n) / r]

Where,

  • PMT is periodic payment
  • r is discount rate per peiod
  • n is number of periods

Thus,

PV of annuity = 3895.5 * [( 1 - (1+0.09)^-10) / 0.09]

PV of annuity = $24999.985 rounded off to $25000
