A pharma company uses spectrophotometers to analyze the concentration of products. One of the spectrophotometer need to be replaced which will cost the company $51667 five years from now. The pharma company has decided to keep a fixed amount of funds every year to cover the spectrophotometer charges. Calculate the amount the company needs to set aside each year beginning 1 year from now. Provided rate of return equal to 15% per year. Solve by using formulas (the use of tables is not allowed)
Company A plans to set aside $150,000 now for possibly replacing its large synchronous refiner motors
in the future. If the replacement is expected to take place in 3.5 years, how much will the company have
in its investment set-aside account? Assume the rate of return is 10% per year compounded quarterly.
A company that manufactures air-operated drain valve assemblies currently has $110,000 available to pay for plastic components over
a 5-year period. If the company spent only $60,000 in year 1, what uniform annual amount can the company spend in each of the next
4 years to deplete the entire budget? Let i= 11% per year.
The uniform annual amount the company can spend is $ |
