Question: Business The scrap value of a machine is the value of the machine at the end of its useful life. By one method of calculating scrap value, where it is assumed a constant percentage of value is lost annually, the scrap value \(S\) is given by
\[S=C(1-r)^{n}\]where \(\mathrm{C}\) is the original cost, \(n\) is the useful life of the machine in
years, and \(r\) is the constant annual percentage of value lost. Find the scrap value for each of the following machines.
Original cost, $78,000; life, 11 years; annual rate of value loss, \(14 \%\)
