老师，请问第一步中括号里面是什么意思?
NO.PZ2017092702000014 问题如下 Granarents are funng a newborn’s future university tuition costs, estimate$50,000/yefor four years, with the first payment e a lump sum in 18 years. Assuming a 6% effective annurate, the requireposit toy is closest to: A.$60,699. B.$64,341. C.$68,201. B is correct. First, finthe present value (PV) of ornary annuity in Ye17 threpresents the tuition costs: 50,000[1−1(1+0.06)40.06]50,000{\lbrack\frac{1-\frac1{{(1+0.06)}^4}}{0.06}\rbrack}50,000[0.061−(1+0.06)41] = $50,000 × 3.4651 = $173,255.28. Then, finthe PV of the annuity in toy’s llars (where FV is future value):PV0=FV(1+0.06)17=173,255.28(1+0.06)17PV_0=\frac{FV}{{(1+0.06)}^{17}}=\frac{173,255.28}{{(1+0.06)}^{17}}PV0=(1+0.06)17FV=(1+0.06)17173,255.28PV0 = $64,340.85 ≈ $64,341. 173255.28我能算出来 但为什么下一步时间是17 不是18

N=18， I/Y= 6， PMT=0, FV = 200000 这样哪里错了
