Bradley Odom · Answer 1

B. = PV (.06,10,0,10000)

Explanation:

In MS Excel the formula of Present value re is as "=PV (rate, nper, pmt, [fv]) ".

PV = Present value

rate = Interest rate = 6% = 0.06

nper = number of periods = 10

pmt = payment made each period = 0 in this scenario

fv = future value = 10,000

So, according to the formula the correct sequence is = PV (.06,10,0,10000)

which is correctly mentioned in option B.
