Answer:

Find the present value of $500 to be paid at the end of 28 months

(a) if the nominal interest rate is 6% convertible monthly,

Present worth = 500 / (1+6%/12) 12(28/12)  = $434.831

(b) if the nominal discount rate is 6% compounded every 4 months

Present worth = 500 / (1+6%/4) 4(28/12)  = $435.131

(c) if the nominal interest rate is 4% compounded semiannually, 

Present worth = 500 / (1+4%/2) 2(28/12)  = $455.865

(d) if the nominal discount rate is 5% payable annually,

Present worth = 500 / (1+5%/1) 1(28/12)  = $455.865

 formula:

Present worth = Future worth / (1+r%/m) m(t)
