Ahouse purchased for $230,000 has lost 6% of its value each year for the last four years. what is the house worth now?

You can use the compound growth to work this out,

Firstly you need to make a multiplier for -6%;
1-(6/100) = 0.94

The you times the amount of money by 0.94 to the power of 4 because you are working out 4 years:
230000*0.94^4 = 179527.26

The answer is $179527.26,
Hope this helps! :)
