P = 9,877.30

Explanation:

he applicable formula for this annuity calculation is as below. the intention is the get an annuity payable at the end of each year

P = PV x r

1 - (1+r) - n

P is the yearly amount

PV is the present value, $30,000

r is interest rate 12 % or 0.12 %

n is four years

P = 30,000 x 0.12

1 - (1+0.12) - 4

P = 30,000 x 0.12

1 - 0.6355180

P = 30,000 x 0.32923436

P = 9,877.30
