- P(1-R/100)^n
P=350000, R=10, n=4
350000*(1-10/100)^4
229635 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(8) No(0)
- 350000*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9=229635
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(0)
- a 229635
p(1-r/100)^n - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- 350000*{(90/100)^4} = 229635
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 1st year - 0.9 * 350000
2nd year - 0.9 * 35000
similarly after 4 years - 0.9^4 * 350000 = 229635 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Ans is a 229635
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- d
10% depreciation meansd it reduces by10% every year
so totally for 4 years it becomes 255150 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- present worth of the car will be 350000/(1+10/100)^4
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- (90/100)*(90/100)*(90/100)*(90/100)*350000= 229635.
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- (350000*9*9*9*9)/10*10*10*10= present value
