Expert Solution

Step 1: Introduction:
Present value illustrates the current value of a sum of money that will be received or paid in the future after accounting for the time value of the money. It takes into consideration the fact that a specific amount of money today is valued higher than a similar amount in the future because of things like inflation and the possibility of earning interest. In order to compare the current value of various financial transactions, the present value computation entails discounting future payments to their corresponding value in today's terms.
