Building B
Rent X (PV of annuity due of 25 periods at 12%) = PV
$69,000 X 8.78432 = PV
$606,118 = PV
Building C
Rent X (PV of ordinary annuity of 25 periods at 12%) = PV
$7,000 X 7.84314 = PV
$54,902 = PV

(i) Present value of the expected annual pension payments at the end of the 10 th
year:
PVOA = R (PVFOAn, i)
PVOA = $700,000 (PVFOA10, 8%)
PVOA = $700,000 (6.71008)
PVOA = $4,697,056
(ii) Present value of the expected annual pension payments at the beginning of the
current year:
PV = FV (PVFn, i)
PV = $4,697,056 (PVF15,8%)
PV = $4,697,056 (0.31524)
