Down payment needed = ($20,000 × 1.04) × .2 = $4, PV = FV/(1 + r)t PV = $4,160/(1.06) PV = $3,924.

A. 5.43% B. 7.37% C. 8.00% D. 9.50% - ANSWER-B. 7.37% FV = PV(1 + r)t 1 = .7008(1 + r) r = .0737, or 7.37% Given a set future value, which of the following will contribute to a lower present value? A. Higher discount rate
