Question

Give the detailed solution and draw the cash flow. I will rate accordingly 

6.14 For what value of X are the following two cash flows equivalent at a 10% interest rate?
End of Year
1
3
4
Flow A, $
-10 000
5000
5000
5000
5000
Flow B. $
3500
4500
5500
6500
Equating
PA=-$10 000 + $5000(P/A, 10%, 4)
Pa = X + [S3500 + $1000(A/G, 10%, 4)] (PIA, 10%, 4)
and
we obtain
X =-$10 000+ [$1500-$1000(A/G, 10%, 4)] (PIA, 10%, 4)
= -$10 000 + [$1500- $1000(1.3812)] (0.31547)
= -$9623
