Che-Che bought his brother a laptop 5 years ago which has a cost of around 25,000PhP. The laptop’s life span will last until 5 years. She has a friend which is a computer technician who advised her that the laptop’s life span could extend until 10 years if she could spend semi-annual maintenance of 100Php with a 10Php increase rate starting the next period of maintenance inspection. How much is the total future cost assuming that the money will have a rate of 2% compounded semi-annually if she decided to enjoy using her laptop beyond the expected life span upon purchasing?
