    Answer: £165.41

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Price of bike when purchased in 2010 = £300

    Depreciation rate yearly = 18%

    Value of bike in 2011

    Purchased price - depreciation value

    = £300 - £300 * 0.18

    = £300 - £54

    = £246

    Value of bike in 2012

    = 2011 Price - depreciation value

    = £246 - £246 * 0.18

    = £246 - £44.28

    = £201.72

    Value of Bike in 2013

    = price of 2012 - depreciation value

    = £201.72 - £201.72 * 0.18

    = £201.72 - £36.31

    = £165.41

    Price in 2014 would be £165.41
