If the interest rate is 5 percent what is the present value of a security that pays you 1100 next year and 1210 the year after would you be willing to pay 2310 for this security why or why not?

If the interest rate is 5 percent what is the present value of a security that pays you 1100 next year and 1210 the year after would you be willing to pay 2310 for this security why or why not?
The NPV of this security is calculated as follows:

(2310) + 1100/1.05 + 1210/1.052 = (164.87)

Since the NPV of this investment is negative, you should not buy it.
