A car valued at $ 600,000.00 depreciates by 10% each year. What will be the value of the car at the end of two years? 
$ 120,000.00
$ 480,000.00
$ 486,000.00
$ 540,000.00

Explanation

Using P\(_n\) = P\(_o\)(1 - \(\frac{r}{100})^n\)

 = 600,000(1 - \(\frac{10}{100})^2\)

= 600,000(0.90)\(^2\) = $486,000.00
