Answer:

a. Amount = $1653.93

b. Amount = $1835.82

Explanation:

a.

The Present Value is the deposited amount of future payments.

The payments are annuity if they are made at the end of each year.

To compute the present value of an annuity with periodic payment, we'll make use of the following formula:

M(1 - (1 + r)^- T)/ r

Where

M = Periodic Payment = $230

T = Periods = 15

r = rate = 11% = 0.11

So, Amount of Deposit = 230(1 - (1 + 0.11)^-15)/0.11

Amount = 230(1 - (1.11)^-15)/0.11

Amount = 230 ( 1 - 0.209)/0.11

Amount = 230 * 0.791/0.11

Amount = 230 * 7.191

Amount = $1653.93

b.

In this case payments are made at the beginning of each period

This means that the payments are an annuity due.

To compute the present value of an annuity due with periodic payment, we'll make use of the following formula

M((1 + r) - ( 1 + r) ^ ( 1 - T))/r

Amount = 230(( 1 + 0.11) - (1 + 0.11) ^ (1 - 15))/0.11

Amount. = 230((1.11 - 1.11^-14))/0.11

Amount = 230(1.11 - 0.232)/0.11

Amount = 230 * 0.878/0.11

Amount = 201.94/0.11

Amount = $1835.82

Rama09 [41]
Emma's taxable property value should be $600,000 since her taxes will be based on the assessment not the appraisal and also because she gets the $50,000 tax reduction so therefore to reiterate she will be taxed on only the $600,000.

B. If the building could be sold, then the after-tax proceeds that would be generated by any such sale should be charged as a cost to any new project that would use it.
