- Assume S=0.6Y+19 describes the projected relationship between S , sales of a company (in millions of dollars), for Y years from today. What would be the projected company sales in three years?arrow_forwardA farmer depreciates a $120,000 tractor. He estimates that the resale value V(t) (in $1000) of the tractor t years after purchase is 80% of its value from the previous year. Therefore, the resale value can be approximated by V(t) = 120(0.8)t. a. Find the resale value 5 yr after purchase. Round to the nearest $1000. b. The farmer estimates that the cost to run the tractor is $18/hr in labor, $36/hr in fuel, and $22/hr in overhead costs (for maintenance and repair). Estimate the farmer’s cost to run the tractor for the first year if he runs the tractor for a total of 800 hr. Include hourly costs and depreciation.arrow_forwardEdy makes 15 annual deposits of x, which are just sufficient to allow him to make 8 annual withdrawal of ¢1000 first withdrawal one year after last deposits interest is at 5% effective.

Select all of the following which correctly describe the investment (more than one may be correct). OA. An initial investment of $2600 increases by 0.375% per year. OB. An initial investment of $2600 increases by 97.5 dollars every year. OC. An initial investment of $2600 increases by 0.0375% every year. OD. An initial investment of $2600 increases by 3.75% per year. O E. An initial investment of $2600 increases by 1.0375% per year. OF.

(The monthly interest rate is 0.0025.) Each month, after the initial investment, an additional $200 is added to the account. Let Y be the amount in the atcount at the end of k months. a. Write the difference equation satisfied by Yk Yk+1= b. The amount of money that will be in the account after 3 years is $ The amount of money that will be in the account after 4 years is $ The amount of money that will be in the account after 6 years is $ The amount of interest in the 6-year total is $ Yo=arrow_forward
