$ amount X (1 + i)^n i = rate of interest n = compounding periods Let's you find the compound interest factor The answer using your numbers $8.3M X (1 +5%)^10 $8.3M X 1.628895 $13.519825M Go in reverse. What is the present value of $13.519825 to be received in 10 years assuming a 5% interest rate. Present value factor is reciprocal 1/(1+i)^n $13.519825M X 1/(1+5%)^10 $13.519825M X .613913 = $8.3M ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
