Civil engineering consulting firms that provide services to outlying communities are vulnerable to a number of factors that affect the financial condition of the communities, such as bond issues and real estate developments. A small consulting firm entered into a fixed-price contract with a large developer, resulting in a stable income of $260,000 per year in years 1 through 3. At the end of that time, a mild recession slowed the development, so the par-ties signed another contract for $190,000 per year for 2 more years. Determine the present worth of the two contracts at an interest rate of 10% per year.
