Answer:

b. $299,574

Explanation:

For calculating the ask price, we first need to compute the present value which is attached in the spreadsheet.

In this question, we use the present value formula which is shown in the spreadsheet.  

The NPER represents the time period.

Given that,  

Future value = $0

Rate of interest = 7.5%

NPER = 25 years  - 1 years = 24 years

PMT = $25,000

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

So, after solving this, the present value is $278,673.65

Now the ask price is

= $274,574.17  + $25,000

= $299,574.17
