A company intends to create a sinking fund to replace at the end of 20th^{th} year assets costing Rs. 2,50,000. Then the value of the amount to be retained out of profits every year if the interest rate is 5% is : [Given (1.05)20=2.6532(1.05)^{20} = 2.6532]

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Sinking fund: A×(1+r)n−1r=FVA \times \frac{(1+r)^n - 1}{r} = FV. So A×2.6532−10.05=250000A \times \frac{2.6532 - 1}{0.05} = 250000. A×33.064=250000A \times 33.064 = 250000, giving A≈7561.09A \approx 7561.09.
