I assume you mean 7% per year?
If so, the formula is
PV = (C_1)/(1+r^t)
PV = 7,000/(1+0.07^10) Use your calculator to get the answer

$7,000 dollars 10 years from now at 7% is worth how much today?
Answer = 3558
Never in a million years will 7000%2F%281+%2B+0.07%5E10%29 give you $3,558, as one person has claimed. 
However, the correct equation for PV (Present Value) will give: $3,558.45, which when rounded down, gives: $3,558.
