Answer:

The answer is "869.76"

Explanation:

Given value:

[tex]CF_0=-1000\\\\CF_1=-1500\\\\CF_2=2000\\\\CPT \ IRR =2.8342\%\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\to Nominal\ Rate =2\times ((1+2.8342 \%)^{((\frac{1}{2})-1)}[/tex]

                          [tex]=2\times ((1.28342)^{(\frac{1}{2})-1}) \\ \\=2\times ((1.28342)^{(\frac{1}{2})-1}) \\\\ = 2.81\%[/tex]

[tex]\to 1000 = P (1+ \frac{2.83}{100})^5 \\\\\to 1000 = P (1+ 0.0283)^5\\\\\to P = \frac{1000}{(1+ 0.0283)^5}\\\\[/tex]

       [tex]= \frac{1000}{1.14973878}\\\\= 869.76[/tex]
