Solution

The present value of an annuity due can be calculated using the following formula:

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

where:

  • PV is the present value of the annuity due,
  • PMT is the amount of each annuity payment,
  • r is the interest rate per period, and
  • n is the number of periods.

In this case, PMT = $200, r = 5% or 0.05, and n = 4 years.

Substituting these values into the formula gives:

PV = $200 * [(1 - (1 + 0.05)^-4) / 0.05] * (1 + 0.05)

Calculating the expression in the square brackets first:

= $200 * [(1 - (1.05)^-4) / 0.05] * 1.05

= $200 * [(1 - 0.822702474) / 0.05] * 1.05

= $200 * [0.177297526 / 0.05] * 1.05

= $200 * 3.54595052 * 1.05

= $744.66

So, the present value of the annuity due is $744.66.
