Answer:
The function stated by Tucker is incorrect.
V(t) = 4600(0.8)^t
Explanation:
Given the function :
V(t)=4,600(0.4)2t
The initial value of equipment = 4600
Decay rate = 40% of very 2 years
The value of equipment t years after purchase
The exponential decat function goes thus :
V(t) = Initial value * (1 - decay rate)^t
The Decay rate per year = 40% /2 = 20% = 0.2
V(t) = 4600(1 - 0.2)^t
V(t) = 4600(0.8)^t
