QUESTION 5
5.1 You start a business and buy a delivery truck for R450 000.
5.1.1 If the inflation rate is estimated at 6% per annum, what will a new delivery truck
cost in five years’ time? (2)
5.1.2 If you calculate depreciation at 20% per annum using the reducing balance
method, what will the value of your delivery truck be in five years’ time? (2)
5.1.3 Determine the amount of money required to replace the delivery truck in
five years’ time. (1)
5.1.4 You set up a sinking fund for the next five years so that you can trade in your
delivery truck and buy a new one by financing the difference with the sinking
fund.
The bank offers an interest rate of 9% per annum compounded monthly. How
much should you put away at the end of each month so that you have enough
to finance the difference between the the new vehicle and trade-in value of
your delivery truck at the end of five years? The first payment into the sinking
fund is made immediately and the last payment at end of the five years. (4)
5.2 On 1 June 2020 a bank granted Lyndon a loan of R250 000 at an interest rate of 15%

he paid his first instalment. (2)
5.2.2 Having paid the first monthly instalment on 1 September 2020, Lyndon will
still pay his last monthly instalment on 1 June 2024.
Calculate his monthly instalment. (4)
5.2.3 If Lyndon paid R9000 as his monthly instalment starting on 1 September 2020,
how many months sooner will he repay the loan? (5)
