    Present value is found by discounting future values using a discount/interest rate.

    Current year PV of $5000 is $5000.

    A year in future PV is $5000 / (1+r) ^n which is $5000 / (1.06) ^1

    = $4,716.98 is what $5000 in a year from now is worth.

    Two years in future is $5000 / (1+r) ^r which will now be $5000 / (1.06) ^2

    = $4,449.98 is what $5000 two years from now is worth today.

    Add all figures up to get your Present value.

    =5000 + 4,716.98 + 4,449.98

    = $14,166.96 is the present value.
