Salem Co. has a year-end of December 31 and they are evaluating the cash flows of some potential investments/projects they are considering for their next fiscal year, starting January 1.

Salem Co. rents some of their equipment out to other companies for extra cash flow. They are evaluating three different options to structure their rental agreement in order to earn the largest amount of payments as possible.

If Salem receives the rental payments of $15,000 for the next five years on each January 1 instead, at 7% compounded annually, how much is that worth today?

$61,502.96 is incorrect
