Transcribed Image Text:**Determine the Present Equivalent Value of Cash Flows**
When the annual interest rate, \( i_k \), varies as indicated, you need to determine the present equivalent value of the cash-flow diagram presented below. The diagram specifies cash inflows at different time intervals with varying interest rates.
### Cash-Flow Diagram Details:
- **Year 0**: Present value, \( P = ? \)
- **Year 1**: $2,500 at \( i_1 = 6\% \)
- **Year 2**: \( i_2 = 15\% \)
- **Year 3**: $5,000 at \( i_3 = 12\% \)
- **Year 4**: \( i_4 = 6\% \)
- **Year 5**: $2,500 at \( i_5 = 6\% \)
- **Year 6**: $5,000 at \( i_6 = 15\% \)
### Instructions
- Click the icon to view the interest and annuity table for discrete compounding when \( i = 6\% \) per year.
- Click the icon to view the interest and annuity table for discrete compounding when \( i = 12\% \) per year.
#### Task
