Answer:

PV= $69,003,731.47

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cash flows= $5,000,000 for 50 years

Opportunity cost= 7%

First, we need to calculate the Future Value of the cash flow stream using the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual cah flow

FV= {5,000,000*[(1.07^50) - 1]} / 0.07

FV= $2,032,644,647

Now, the present value:

PV= FV / (1+i)^n

PV= 2,032,644,647 / (1.07^50)

PV= $69,003,731.47
