This is the link to the video where I saw it. The video is in Spanish but you can see how he explains the formula and he has excel does the calculations for him.
Where did you encounter the equation without parentheses (or written up as denominatornumerator)
Could this formula be used to solve the problem in this post?The formula for annual linear depreciation is ya−s, where a is acquisition cost, s is expected salvage value, and y is number of years of expected useful life for items of that type. In many cases, s is assumed to be 0.
The formula for annual exponential depreciation after n years is (yy−1)n∗a.
Variable names are arbitrary.By the way, S =salvage value in the formula you posted is the same as residual value (R) in the one I posted. Same concept different names.
Your a stands for my C = cost
Your y stands for expected useful value, which in mine us n.
What is it about the parentheses that you said changed the picture completely. ?.Variable names are arbitrary.
It seems you've already answered that.What is it about the parentheses
the numerator part ( for lack of a better term) should be enclosed paratheses (sic)
EddyThat was good. I see the need for la tex
It is imperative to write in la tex otherwise is difficult to put in grouping symbols with definitive clarity
I will start working on that. I started but put it off. Have to learn that.
There's a link in the forum guidelines to purplemath's four-page explanation about how to text math using a keyboard.how am I gonna be able to put grouping symbols when needed, writing with regular mathematical notation?. Tricky.
Thanks mmm.
