Answer:

$1,757.05

Explanation:

In this question, we use the PV formula which is shown in the spreadsheet.  

The NPER represents the time period.

Given that,  

Future value = $2,000

PMT = 2000 × 7.1% = $142

NPER = 23 years

Rate of interest = 8.3%

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

So, after solving this, the present value would be $1,757.05
