    a) fv 1000 n 10 pmt 70 pv - 985 solve for i

    = 7.215%

    b) solve for pv for three years into the future fv1000 n 7, pmt 70, pv?

    =988.46

    *price is reflective of how many years have gone by so when three years go by there is still 7 years left so n is 7

    * higher than before because as you get close
