Explanation / Answer

Dear student, only one question is allowed at a time. I am answering the first question

Present Value Factor

= 1 / (1 + r) ^ n

Where,

r = Rate of interest = 6% or 0.06

n = Years 0 to 8

So, PV Factor for year 2 will be

= 1 / (1.06) ^ 2

= 1 / 1.1236

= 0.889996

The following table shows the calculations

So, as per above calculations, option A is the correct option
