### Present Values Calculation

In this section, we'll examine how to calculate the present value of cash flows using a discount rate and the assumption that the cash flow is received at the end of the specified period. The table below illustrates the different cases, each with a specified single cash flow, discount rate, and time frame.

#### Table: Present Value Calculation

| Case | Single Cash Flow | Discount Rate | End of Period (years) |
|------|------------------|---------------|-----------------------|
| A    | $7,000           | 12%           | 4                     |
| B    | $28,000          | 8%            | 20                    |
| C    | $10,000          | 14%           | 12                    |
| D    | $150,000         | 11%           | 6                     |
| E    | $45,000          | 20%           | 8                     |

For each case, you'll need to apply the present value formula:

\[ \text{PV} = \frac{\text{CF}}{(1 + r)^n} \]

Where:
- **PV** = Present Value
- **CF** = Cash Flow
- **r** = Discount Rate
- **n** = Number of Years (End of Period)

Using this formula, you can determine how much a future cash flow is worth in today's terms, accounting for the time value of money via the specified discount rates.
