I am trying to determine the following using the PV function.

20,000,000 distributed in 10 installments

How much was it worth assuming a long term interest rate of 5%.

What is the effect on the answer if payments are received at the beginning of the year (Jan 1) vs. the end of the year(Dec 31st)

BTW, I thought I posted this on MrExcel but went to look for the link and could not find the post, thus, I am posting here. Thanks
