    A) $94, 244

    Explanation:

    The agreement required 8 installment payment of $20,000 each, the first one was due on the same day the agreement was made (December 30). The December 31 balance account of the note payable equals the present value of the 7 remaining payments:

    the present value factor of an ordinary annuity for 7 years ans 11% interest rate = 4.712

    so the present value of the note payable = $20,000 x 4.7122 = $94,244
