    A house is valued every year. The building is appreciating at an average annual rate of 7%. Therefore, every year the value of the house is increasing.

    Start Year End Year

    1995 96,000.00 1.07 102,720.00

    1996 102,720.00 1.07 109,910.40

    1997 109,910.40 1.07 117,604.13

    1998 117,604.13 1.07 125,836.42

    1999 125,836.42 1.07 134,644.97

    2000 134,644.97 1.07 144,070.11

    2001 144,070.11 1.07 154,155.02

    2002 154,155.02 1.07 164,945.87

    2003 164,945.87 1.07 176,492.08

    2004 176,492.08 1.07 188,846.53

    2005 188,846.53 1.07 202,065.79

    2006 202,065.79 1.07 216,210.39

    2007 216,210.39 1.07 231,345.12

    2008 231,345.12 1.07 247,539.28

    2009 247,539.28 1.07 264,867.03

    Boyce's home is valued at $264,867.03 at the end of 2009.

    Or it can be valued using the Future Value formula:

    FV = (1+r) ^n * PV

    PV = 96,000

    r = 7%

    n = 15 years

    FV = (1 + 0.07) ¹⁵ x 96,000

    FV = (1.07) ¹⁵ x 96,000

    FV = 2.759 x 96,000

    FV = 264,864
