by 7% per year. If the initial value of a
car is $32,200.00, what will the value be

The value of this car when it is 9 years old is equal to $16,757.00.

How to calculate the value?

In order to determine the value of this car when it is 9 years old, we would use an exponential function which also relates to compound interest as follows:

A = P(1 - r)^t

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

A = 32,200(1 - 0.07)^9

A = 32,200(0.93)^9

A = 32,200 × 0.5204

A = $16,757.00.
