Answer:

$650

Explanation:

Guaranteed Residual Value = FV = $1,000

Interest rate = r = 9% = 0.09

Number of years = n = 5 years

Using Following formula we can calculate today's worth of the engine.

Residual value after 5 years = Today's value x ( 1 + rate of interest )^number of years

FV = PV x ( 1 + r )^n

$1,000 = PV x ( 1 + 0.09 )^5

PV = $1,000 / ( 1.09 )^5

PV = $649.93

PV = $650 (rounded off to the nearest whole number)
