An investor is evaluating a project that will provide an initial payment of 5,000 one year from today, with subsequent annual payments growing at a rate of 4% for a total of 10 years.

If the appropriate discount rate is 9%, which of the following expressions correctly represents the present value of this growing annuity?

  1. (5,000)/(0.09) × [1 - (1.09)^-10]
  2. (5,000)/(0.09 - 0.04)
  3. (5,000)/(0.09 - 0.04) × [1 - ((1.04)/(1.09))^10]
  4. frac5,000 × (1.04)^10(1.09)^10
