Explanation / Answer

1.) Present value = PMT times (present value annuity factor = n = 4, i = ?)

4535.61 = 1400 (PVA factor n = 4, i = ?)

4535.61/ 1400 = PVA factor n = 4, i = ?

3.24 = PVA factor n = 4, i = ?

Now check this from present value annuity table in column states n= 4 and corresponding value is near 3.24

Answer = 9%
