    Heyy John

    part A
    the discount for the year 4 could be
    1-15 year annuity 7.191
    3-15 year annuity 2.444
    4-15 year annuity 4.747

    why it took 7.191 * .731

    and second question the investment is made in year 1 it need to be discounted by .909 , why it is discounted by 1 (is it bcoz of immediate investment)

    The flows are for 15 years, and therefore are from 4 – 18

    So either take the 18 year annuity factor (which you would have to calculate yourself) and subtract the 3 year annuity factor.

    or

    Take the 15 year annuity factor and multiply by the ordinary 3 year factor, because the annuity starts 3 years late (i.e. at time 4 instead of time 1).
