A machine valued at N20,000 depreciates by 10% every year. What will be the value of the machine at the end of two years?
A
N16,200
B
N1,4,200
C
12,000
D
8000.
correct option: a
D = P(I - \(\frac{R}{100}\))n where P = N20,000; R = 10%, n = 2

D = 20,000(I - \(\frac{10}{100}\))2

= 20000(0.9)2

20,000 x 0.81 = N16,200
