Answer:
Leasing.
Explanation:
Find the present value of each and compare and choose the one with the lowest cost in present value terms.
<u>LEASE;</u>
Payments are in form of an annuity ;done using financial calculator (TI BA II plus)
PMT = -30,000
N ;duration = 4
I/Y = 10%
FV = 0
then CPT PV = -$95,095.96
<u>BUY</u>
Initial cost; (already in present value terms) = -$80,000
Annual maintenance(is an annuity); done using financial calculator (TI BA II plus)
PMT = -10,000
N ;duration = 4
I/Y = 10%
FV = 0
then CPT PV = -$31,698.65
Add PV of salvage value;
PV = FV/ (1+r)^4
PV = 20,000 /(1.10^4)
= 20,000/ 1.4641
= $13,660.26911
Overall PV of BUYING = (-80,000 -31,698.65 + 13,660.26911) = -$98,038.38
Therefore, leasing is a better option since the overall present value of costs is lower at $95,095.96 compared to that of buying at 98,038.38.
Answer:
$46,666.67
Explanation:
Henri earned a salary of $50,000 in 2001
He earned $70,000 in 2006
The consumer price index in 2001 was 177 and in 2006 was 265.5
Therefore his salary in 2001 can be calculated as follows
= 70,000/265.5 × 177
= 263.65 × 177
= 46,666.67
