Rate 398.92 (or $4,398.78)This problem will typically be solved using the Future Value of a Single Amount Table for 16 periods at 2%. The problem can also be solved using the Present Value of a Single Amount Table for 16 periods at 2%. Although the latter is less conventional, it will produce the correct answer. However, the answers will differ slightly due to rounding of the tables to five decimal places. Periods 4 years × 4 = 16 Rate   Future Value of a Single Amount: $11,800 x FV of a Single Amount, 16 periods, 2% $11,800 × 1.37279 = $16,198.92 $16,198.92 - $11,800 = $4,398.92 Present Value of a Single Amount: $11,800 / PV of a Single Amount, 16 periods, 2% $11,800 / 0.72845 = $16,198.78 $16,198.78 - $11,800 = $4,398.78 Future Value of a Single Amount:
$11,800 x FV of a Single Amount, 16 periods, 2%
$11,800 × 1.37279 = $16,198.92
$16,198.92 - $11,800 = $4,398.92
Present Value of a Single Amount:
$11,800 / PV of a Single Amount, 16 periods, 2%
$11,800 / 0.72845 = $16,198.78
$16,198.78 - $11,800 = $4,398.78
