| Question 782160:  Compute E so that the cash flows have a present value of 0
 
 300      200       100      200      100     200        300
 0------1---------2---------3--------4--------5--------6---------7
 i = 10%                           E        E
 
 
  . 
 I have been told that E= $825.62, but I can't figure out how that is the correct answer.  Can you give any assistance?  **Excuse is the formatting changes how the question looks**  The 300,200,100,200,100,200,300 is over the 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and the E,E is under the 5 and 6.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! If you simplify: 803.7 +((100-E)1.1+200-E)/1.1^6 =0
 -2.1E+310 =-803.7(1.1^6)
 -2.1E = -1733.8
 E = 825.62
