    we assume fees paid as annuity (PMT)

    Now we have to find Present Value (PV) of annuity

    PV = PMT * (1-1 / (1+r) n) / r

    PMT = 10600

    n = 8 payments

    3.9% compounded semi annual

    r = 3.9% / 2 = 1.95% = 0.0195

    PV = 10600 * (1-1 / (1+0.0195) 8) / 0.0195

    PV = 10600*0.143155 / 0.0195 = 73412.820513
