  1. Exponential Depreciation Section 5-6

  2. Exponential Depreciation • In the previous section, we learned about straight line depreciation • Cars lose the same value each year • If this is not the case, how could we determine the value of a car after a certain number of years • Look at historical data

  3. Exponential Depreciation • Chevrolet Corvette 2-door Coupe in good condition

  4. Exponential Depreciation

  5. Exponential Depreciation • The actual graph of this depreciation appears to be curved • It is not a straight line • The car value seems to drop more at the beginning of the car’s lifetime and less as each year passes

  6. Exponential Depreciation • This is known as exponential decay • The value of the car decreases by the same percentage each year • Model is known as Exponential Depreciation

  7. Exponential Depreciation • Exponential Depreciation Y = A A = starting value of car r = percent of depreciation x = time in years Y = value of the car after x years

  8. Exponential Depreciation • You buy a car that originally sells for $25,000. It exponentially depreciates at a rate of 4 ¼ % per year. • Write an exponential depreciation equation for this car. Y = 25,000

  9. Exponential Depreciation • Tanya’s new car sold for $23,856. Her online research indicates that the car will depreciate exponentially at a rate of 6 % per year. • Write an exponential depreciation equation for this car. Y = 23,856

  10. Exponential Depreciation You buy a used car for $12,500. The car depreciates exponentially at a rate of 5 ¼% per year. How much will the car be worth after 5 years? Y = 12,500 Y = 12,500 Y = $9,545.66

  11. Exponential Depreciation Sharon purchased a used car for $24,600. The car depreciates exponentially by 8% per year. How much will the car be worth after 5 years? Y = 24,600 Y = 24,600 Y = $16,213.41

  13. Exponential Depreciation Section 5-6

  14. Exponential Depreciation • Exponential Depreciation Y = A A = starting value of car r = percent of depreciation x = time in years Y = value of the car after x years

  15. Exponential Depreciation A car exponentially depreciates at a rate of 6% per year. Beth purchased a 5-year old car for $18,000. What was the original price of the car when it was new? Y = 18,000 = 18,000 = A A = A =

  16. Exponential Depreciation A car exponentially depreciates at a rate of 9% per year. Beth purchased a 7-year old car for $14,500. What was the original price of the car when it was new? Y = 14,500 = 14,500 = A A = A =

  17. Exponential Depreciation • Yesterday, we: • Found the equation for exponential depreciation • Calculated the value of a car after “x” number of years • Today, we are going to find the rate of depreciation of a car

  18. Exponential Depreciation You buy a 4-year old car for $16,400. When the car was new, it sold for $23,000. Find the depreciation rate. Y = 16,400 =

  19. Exponential Depreciation = 1 - r = 8.1%

  20. Exponential Depreciation • Steps to finding rate • Substitute variables into the equation • Divide both sides by starting price (A) • Raise both sides to the reciprocal of x • Re-write equation with r isolated • Plug into calculator • Convert to a percent

  21. Exponential Depreciation Brad purchased a 5-year old car for $14,200. When the car was new, it sold for $24,000. Find the depreciation rate. Y = 14,200 =

  22. Exponential Depreciation = 1 - r = 10 %
