Answer:

Present Value= $312,966.57

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Annual cash flow= $50,000

Number of years= 20

Growing rate= 5%

Interest rate= 10%

To calculate the present value, first, we need to determine the final value. The easiest way to incorporate the growing rate is to add it tho the interest rate.

Interest rate= 10% + 5%= 15%

Now, using the following formula, we can determine the final value:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual pay

FV= {50,000*[(1.15^20)-1]} / 0.15= $5,122,179.13

The present value is:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 5,122,179.13/ 1.15^20= $312,966.57
