The Chester Company has just purchased $40,900,000 of plant and equipment that has an estimated useful life of 15 years. Suppose

Lena [83]

Answer:

(B) $38,446,000

Explanation:

Assuming a linear depreciation model, depreciation will occur at the same rate each year. Since the total after 15 years is 90% of the original value, the percentage depreciated per year is given by:

$P= \frac{90\%}{15} \\P=6\%$

The book value (V) of this purchase after the first year will be:

$V=\$40,900,000*(1-0.06)\\V=\$38,446,000$

Therefore, the answer is (B) $38,446,000

Olivia bought a $1,874 sprinkler system with her credit card. Her credit card has an APR of 10.31%, compounded monthly. She made

Radda [10]

Answer:

Percentage of the total lifetime cost of the system that the original price made up = 59.07%

Explanation:

The monthly payments for the sprinkler system can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV = Present value or original price of the sprinkler = $1,874

P = Monthly payment = ?

r = Monthly interest rate = APR / 12 = 10.31% / 12 = 0.1031 / 12 = 0.00859166666666667

n = number of months = number of years of payment * 12 = 4 * 12 = 48

Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve P, we have:

$1,874 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.00859166666666667))^48) / 0.00859166666666667)

$1,874 = P * 39.1976732321759

P = $1,874 / 39.1976732321759

P = $47.81

Therefore, we have:

Total payment for the sprinkler = Monthly payments * Number of months = P * n = $47.81 * 48 = $2,294.88

Total cost in water = Cost in water per week * Number of weeks in a year * Number of years that Olivia kept the sprinkler system = $2.11 * 52 * 8 = $877.76

Total lifetime cost of the system = Total payment for the sprinkler + Total cost in water = $2,294.88 + $877.76 = $3,172.64

Percentage of the total lifetime cost of the system that the original price made up = (Original price of the sprinkler / Total lifetime cost of the system) * 100 = ($1,874 / $3,172.64) * 100 = 59.07%
