Initial Investment The desired item is jewelry The cost in 12 years will be about $6000. The average interest rate is 5%. The Present value formula is P =A (1+r)-n where P is the present value that will amount to A dollars in n years at interest rate r compounded annually. Note that the quantity raised to a power has the negative exponent on –n. According to the rules of exponents‚ this means that once the negative is put into effect‚ the base quantity will change position by dropping down
