Expert Solution

Step 1
LU 13-2a
1.Present value is the amount of money which we invest today. Since it is semi annually so the rate of interest will be divided by 2 and number of years will be multiplied by 2.
Period= 5 years x 2=10
Rate= 5% / 2=2.5 %
By looking the period and rate in present value of an annuity table, the intersection gives present value of 8.7521
Present Value= Ordinary Annuity x Table Value
=$20,000 x 8.7521
=175,042
