**Present Value and Annuity Factors Tables for Educational Purposes**

### Table 6.4: Factors for Calculating the Present Value of $1

This table shows the present value factors for $1 at various discount rates over different periods.

- **Columns**: The table is organized into columns that represent different discount rates ranging from 2% to 20%.
- **Rows**: The rows signify the number of periods, from 1 to 50.
- **Values**: Each cell within the table provides a factor that can be multiplied by the future value to determine its present value at the respective discount rate and period.

### Table 6.5: Factors for Calculating the Present Value of an Annuity of $1

This table presents the present value annuity factors for $1 received at the end of each period over several periods at various discount rates.

- **Columns**: Similar to Table 6.4, these columns represent different discount rates ranging from 2% to 20%.
- **Rows**: The rows also represent the number of periods, again from 1 to 50.
- **Values**: Each cell gives a factor used to calculate the present value of an annuity of $1. This is used in scenarios where equal cash flows occur at regular intervals, such as loan repayments or lease agreements.

These tables are essential tools in financial analysis, helping students and professionals alike calculate the worth of future cash flows in today's dollars. Understanding how to apply these tables is crucial for decision making in finance, investments, and real estate.
