From an online calculator:

N (# of periods)  10

I/Y (Interest per year)  5.2

PMT (Periodic Payment)  6000

FV (Future Value)  0

Results

PV = $45,883.70

Sum of all periodic payments $60,000.00

Total Interest $14,116.30

The present value of the bequest is $61,178.27.

Here, we are going to use the MS Excel to determine the present value of the bequest.

Given Information

Rate = 5.2%

Nper = 10

Pmt = -8000

PV = ?

Present value of the bequest = PV(Rate, Nper, -Pmt)

Present value of the bequest = PV5.2%, 10, -8000)

Present value of the bequest = $61,178.2701

Present value of the bequest = $61,178.27

Therefore, the present value of the bequest is $61,178.27.
