When Derek was a small child, his grandfather established a trust fund for him to receive $20,000 on his thirty-fifth birthday. (Any earnings beyond $20,000 reverted to his grandfather.) Derek just turned 23. What is the present value of the trust today if it earns 7% interest and Derek will receive it at age 35? What is the present value of the $20,000 to be received in 17 years if he had to wait until age 40 to receive the money?
