4) You have a property that was purchased on your behalf in 1982 for $80,000. It has appreciated at a rate of 8%. What is it worth today?
Calculation of property's today's worth i.e. in the year 2018 | |
We can use future value of sum formula to calculate this value. | |
Future value = P x (1+r)^n | |
Future value = property's today's worth = ? | |
P = Property's purchase cost = $80000 | |
r = appreciation rate per year = 8% | |
n = no.of years from 1982 to 2018 = 36 | |
Future value = 80000 x (1+0.08)^36 | |
Future value = 80000 x 15.96817 | |
Future value = 12,77,453.75 | |
Property's today's worth = $12,77,453.75 | |
