    Answer:D $197,289

    Explanation:

    Compounding a present value for a future sum is calculated thus:

    FV = PV (1+r/n) ^nt

    FV = $270,000

    Rate = 8%

    Time = 4yrs

    Compounded semi annually

    $270,000 = PV (1+0.08/2) ^2*4

    270,000=PV (1.04) ^8

    270,000=PV (1.368569050405)

    270,000/1.3685690504052736

    PV = 197,289
