A small company heats its building and spends $8000 per year on natural gas for this purpose. Cost increases of natural gas are expected to be 10% per year starting one year from now (ie. the first cash flow is $8800 at EOY 1). Their maintenance on the gas furnace is $345 per year, and this is expense is expected to increase by 15% per year starting one year from now. If the planning horizon is 15 years, what is the total annual equivalent expense for operating and maintaining the furnace? Interest rate is 18% per year. please draw the cash flow diagram please follow the instructions to hit up thanks ib advance
Suppose that annual income from a rental property is expected to start at $1,350 per year and decrease at a uniform
amount of $35 each year after the first year for the 15-year expected life of the property. The investment cost is $7,500,
and i is 10% per year. Is this a good investment? Assume that the investment occurs at time zero (now) and that the
annual income is first received at EOY one.
Click the icon to view the interest and annuity table for discrete compounding when i = 10% per year.

Two years ago my daughter was born. On the day she was born I put $3000 into an
account for her. The account earned 4.5% annually. That rate of return on the
account will be fixed until she turns 10, at which point I will transfer whatever is in
that account into a new one which is expected to earn 8% per year, and then l'll
leave that money in that account until her 18th birthday. I plan to take her to Italy to
visit her nona when she turns 16. I expect that trip to cost $5000 and I intend to
withdraw that amount from the account. How much will be left for her on her 18th
birthday (within $5 of the solution below)? Note: I used equations rather than factor
tables for my solution.
