1. A company purchased machinery in 2015 for $400,000. Its value in 2018 was $320,000. Assuming the resale value decreases exponentially, what will the value be in 2020? As a part of your solution, write an exponential function that models the value of the machinery as a function of time, with t = 0 corresponding to 2015. Then use your function to find the value of the machinery in 2020. 1. A company purchased machinery in 2015 for $400,000. Its value in 2018 was $320,000.
