1. Glenn bought a car for 600,000 the yearly deprenation of his car is 10% of its value of the start of the year. What is the value of 5 years?
Answer:
The cars value after the 5-year depreciation is 393,660.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use geometric progression rule:
an = a₁ (r)ⁿ⁻¹
First year, a₁ = 600,000
n = 5
r = 1-0.1 or 0.9 ⇒ because of depreciation
Find the value of the car after its 5-year depreciation:
a₅ = 600,000 (0.9)⁵⁻¹
a₅ = 600,000 (0.9)⁴
a₅ = 600,000(0.6561)
a₅ = 393660
