एक निर्माता घोषित करता है कि उसकी मशीन जिसका मूल्य $15625$ रुपये है, हर वर्ष $20 \%$ की दर से उसका अवमूल्यन होता है। $5$ वर्ष बाद मशीन का अनुमानित मूल्य ज्ञात कीजिए।

A

$Rs$ $5120$

B

$Rs$ $5120$

C

$Rs$ $5120$

D

$Rs$ $5120$

Solution

cost of machine $= Rs .15625$

Machine depreciates by $20 \%$ every year.

Therefore, its value after every year is $80 \%$ of the original cost i.e., $\frac{4}{5}$ of the original cost.

$\therefore $ Value at the end of $5$ years $ = 15625 \times \underbrace {\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{4}{5} \times  \ldots  \times \frac{4}{5}}_{5\,\,\,times} = 5 \times 1024 = 5120$

Thus, the value of the machine at the end of $5$ years is $Rs.$ $5120 .$
