Hence the equivalent payment which can be made today is $ 62,606 approximately.
Question 2
Rate of interest = 13% pa or 6.5% for six months
Here we need to find the FV factor for the various payments which are made of 6 months.

Let the equal payments made at the end of 6 months be $x
Then 13.4944 x = 120000
Hence x = $8,892.6 which can be rounded off to $8,893
Question 3
Money deposited after every 3 months = $ 2,000
Time period for which this is continued = 6 years
Interest rate = 9% pa = 2.25% per quarter
Hence the value of the fund at the end of the six years can be estimated as shown below.
