The amount Canliss borrowed is $35,813.

Explanation:

The amount the company borrowed is equals to the present value of its repayment stream at time 0 (time of borrowing).

As the repayments are not due for three years, the application of formula for determining present value of annuity will brings up the present value of the five annual installments as at the end of Year 2 of the loan which is calculated as:

(10,000/7%) * [1 - (1+7%) ^ (-5) ] = $41,001.97;

Further discount the above results for 2 period to come up with the present value of repayment stream at time 0 which is also the amount the company borrowed:

41,001.97/1.07^2 = $35,813.

So, the answer is $35,813.
