A farm vehicle cost £ 40000 when new. Each year it depreciates in value

A farm vehicle cost £ 40000 when new. Each year it depreciates in value by 20% start of year calculation end of year 1 40000 x 0. 8 32000 2 32000 x 0. 8 25600 3 25600 x 0. 8 20480 4 20480 x 0. 8 16384 5 16384 x 0. 8 13107. 20 The truck lost £ 8000 from its original value in a year. Why is not sensible to say that it will lose £ 8000 every year? What will its value be in 6 years time if that was true? © T Madas

A factory bought a new piece of machinery for £ 80000. The machinery depreciates

A factory bought a new piece of machinery for £ 80000. The machinery depreciates at the rate of 10% per annum. 1. Calculate the value of the machinery after 6 years. 2. After how many years will this piece of machinery be worth less than £ 8000? Original value 80000 x (0. 9)6 years depreciation as a % multiplier © T Madas

After how many years will this piece of machinery be worth less than £ 8000? 80000 x (0. 9)6 = £ 42515. 28 n = 10 80000 x (0. 9) 10 ≈ £ 27894. 28 n = 15 80000 x (0. 9) 15 ≈ £ 16471. 29 n = 20 80000 x (0. 9) 20 ≈ £ 9726. 13 n = 21 80000 x (0. 9) 21 ≈ £ 8753. 52 n = 22 80000 x (0. 9) 22 ≈ £ 7878. 17 © T Madas
