    the present value of the future cash flows is the the value of the bond we calculate the present value as follows

    Cash flow 4% = 40000 per year for 4 year p. v using annuity

    Cash flow = 1000000 at year four present value using compound formula

    Present value at yield rate 7.7%

    Cash flow Discount Factor Present Value

    1000000 0.743253883 743253.8831

    40000 3.334365155 133374.6062

    876628.4893

    Compound = 1000000 / (1+7.7%) ^4

    Annuity = 40000 * (1 - (1+7.7%) ^-4) / 7.7%
