Answer:

$147,205

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial value of the Condominium as $110,000

The rate of appreciation as 6%

Time from 2010 to 2015

We are required to determine its value in 2015.

Using the appreciation formula;

N = N₀ (1+r/100)^n

Where N is the new value and N₀ is the original value

R is the rate of appreciation

n is the time taken

Therefore;

New value in 2015 = $110,000 × (1 + 6/100)^5

= $110,000 × 1.06^5

= $147,204.81

= $147,205

Therefore, the value of condominium in 2015 will be $147,205
