Answer 1: First we need to determine the PV of the 5,000 and 7,000 payments in Years 3 and 5 respectively.
PV of $5,000 payment = 5000/(1.075^3) = 4024.802848
PV of $7,000 payment = 7000/(1.075^5) = 4875.910426
Net PV = 8900.713274
Now we need to replace it with two payments. Use the following formula:
8900.713274 = (x/2)/(1.075^1.5) + x/(1.075^4)
