Hоw tо Shоw Your Work Some of the questions on this exаm mаy require you to show your work. You will not receive credit for а correct answer unless you also type your solution in the answer box. The exam length considers this requirement. Example: Suppose you are given F = $10, i% = 5% per year, N = 2 years, and you need to find the Present value. Sample answer formats include: Factor notation P = 10 (P/F, 5%, 2) = 10 (0.9070) = 9.07 Calculator TVM function N = 2, I% = 5%, FV = 10, PV = -9.07 Formula P = 10 / (1 + 0.05)^2 = 9.07, or P = 10 / (1 + 0.05)2 = 9.07, or You may also use the Math Equation editor
