Two payments of $10,000 each must be made one year and four years from now. If money can earn 9% compounded monthly, what single payment two years from now would be equivalent to the two scheduled payments?

The single equivalent payment will be PV + FV.
FV
= Future value of $10,000, 12 months later

$10,000 *(1.0075)/12

$10,938.07
PV=
Present value of $10,000, 24 months earlier

$10,000/(1.0075)24

$8358.31
The equivalent single payment is
$10,938.07 + $8358.31
= $19,296.38
