Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

1. The willing amount to pay for the promise should be less than $20 that represents the time value of money

2. Now the present value is

= Received amount × discounting factor at 6% for 3 years

= $1,000 × 0.839

= $839

3. Now the interest rate is

As we know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years

$1,000 = $863.84 × (1 + rate of interest)^3

rate of interest =5% approx
