The present value of the promised gift will:

be less than $5,000.

Explanation:

The present value of $5,000 to be received in three years' time from today is less than $5,000 received.  This is explained by the time value of money concept.  If the $5,000 gift is discounted to today's value, using a discount factor of 0.751 (10% in three years' time), it would be $3,755 ($5,000 * 0.751).  This means that $5,000 received in year 3 is less than $5,000 received today.
