The salvage value on a piece of equipment for excavators, inc. is expected to be $10,000 in 12 years. if the discount rate is 8%, what is the present value of the equipment's salvage value?

let p be present value of the equipment's salvage value .

it is given the salvage value on a piece of equipment for excavators, inc. is expected to be $10,000 in 12 years.

a= final amount ,p the present amount ,t= time.

we have a= 10,000,r=8%=0.08,t=12.

substituting the values we have:

or p=$3971(approx).

the present value of the equipment's salvage value is $3971.

in 12 years the salvage value will be $10,000.

the discount rate is 8% per year, which means that if the present value is x, in year from now the value will be x-8%*x, in two years: x--8%*x-8%*x=x-2*8%*

in n years the value will be: x-n*8%*x= x-0.08*nx=(1-0.08*n)*x=0.02*n*x

we know that in n=12 years the value will be $10,000. so, we can solve the equation:

$10,000=0.02*12*x

$10,000=0.24*x

x=$10,000/0.24

x=$41,666

a. 12.5 kg

step-by-step explanation:

f = ma

so

m = f/a = (2500 n)/(200 m/s²) = 12.5 kg

1 n = 1 kg·m/s²
