The incomes for a business for 5 years are as follows: $8250, $12,600, $9,750, $11,400, and $14,500. If the value of money is 8%, what is the equivalent uniform annual benefit for the 5-year period?
A concrete pavement on a street would cost $10,000 and would last for 5 years with negligible repairs. At the end of each years, $1,000 would be spent to remove the old surface before $10,000 is spent again to lay a new surface. Find the annual cost of the pavement at 5%.
$1000 is deposited into a 9% account today. At the end of 2 yr, another $3000 will be deposited. In 5 yr, a $4000
purchase will be made. Approximately how much will be left in the account 1 yr after the purchase?
