Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) is a method for looking at the surfaces of materials that are too opaque or too thick for standard transmission methods. A manufacturer of precision plastic parts estimates that ATR spectroscopy can save the company $8000 per year by reducing returns of out-of-spec parts. What is the future worth of the savings if they start now and extend through year 4? Use i = 10% per year.
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 $ |
In order to have money available for replacing their family vehicle, a couple planned to have $220,000 available
