Answer:

Present Value =  $57,099.57  

Explanation:

The Present Value of a series of future equal amount is the amount the sum in today's terms that would make one to be indifferent . It is the future series of cash flows discounted at the opportunity cost rate of return.

Present Value =  A × ( 1-(1+r)^(-n))/r

A- annual cash flow- 20,000, r- discount rate - 15%, n number of years- 4

PV = 20,000 × (1- 1.15^(-4))/0.15

    = 20,000 × 2.85498

    =  $57,099.57
