    1. Present value = Annuity amount * PVA (n=4; i=10%)

    250,000 = Annuity amount*3.16987

    Annuity amount = $78,868

    2. Present value = Annuity amount * PVA (n=5; i=8%)

    250,000 = Annuity amount * 3.99271

    Annuity amount = $62,614

    3. i = 10%

    Annual payments = $51,351

    250,000 = 51,351 * X

    X = 4.86845

    When looking at the table of present value of an ordinary annuity, PVA of 4.86845 and i=10%, ⇒ n = 7 payments

    4.

    Payments = 104,087

    n = 3

    250,000 = 104,087*X

    X = 2.40184

    When looking at the table of present value of an ordinary annuity, PVA of 2.40184 and n=3, ⇒ i = 12%
