    The amount a person has to deposit today for it to be $1000 in 5 years at 5% is $783.52

    Explanation:

    We need to calculate what amount deposited today and compounded at 5% per year would add up to $1000 1 year from now, for that we will have to discount $1000 by 5% and 5 years using this formula.

    PV = FV / (1+Interest rate) ^N

    FV = 1,000

    Interest rate = 5%

    N = 5

    PV = 1,000 / (1.05) ^5

    PV = 783.52
