Formula is a follows:

year Repair Cost Factor PV
1 0   0
2 0   0
3 1500 =1/(1+0.09)^A4 =B4*C4
4 1500 =1/(1+0.09)^A5 =B5*C5
5 1500 =1/(1+0.09)^A6 =B6*C6
6 1500 =1/(1+0.09)^A7 =B7*C7
7 1500 =1/(1+0.09)^A8 =B8*C8
8 1500 =1/(1+0.09)^A9 =B9*C9
9 1500 =1/(1+0.09)^A10 =B10*C10
10 1500 =1/(1+0.09)^A11 =B11*C11
