Explanation: The present value of the bonds is calculated using the present value of annuities and the present value of a lump sum formula. The interest payments are an annuity, and the face value is a lump sum. The present value can be calculated as follows:

Present Value=(∑(Interest Payment(1+Market Rate)t))+(Face Value(1+Market Rate)n)\text{Present Value} = \left( \sum \left( \frac{\text{Interest Payment}}{(1 + \text{Market Rate})^t} \right) \right) + \left( \frac{\text{Face Value}}{(1 + \text{Market Rate})^n} \right)Present Value=(∑((1+Market Rate)tInterest Payment​))+((1+Market Rate)nFace Value​)

Interest Payment (annuity) = ₦2,000,000 \times 8% = ₦160,000

Market Rate = 10%

Present Value=(∑t=15(₦160,000(1+0.10)t))+(₦2,000,000(1+0.10)5)\text{Present Value} = \left( \sum_{t=1}^{5} \left( \frac{₦160,000}{(1 + 0.10)^t} \right) \right) + \left( \frac{₦2,000,000}{(1 + 0.10)^5} \right)Present Value=(∑t=15​((1+0.10)t₦160,000​))+((1+0.10)5₦2,000,000​)
