Wesley Excavations has taken on a loan to buy a new bulldozer. The terms of the loan state that they must pay $53,209 per year for the next 20 years. If Wesley's cost of debt is 0.103, how much does the bulldozer cost? You may ignore taxes.
Present value of annuity=Annuity[1-(1+interest rate)^-time period]/rate
=53,209[1-(1.103)^-20]/0.103
=53,209*8.3421029
=$443874.95(Approx)
