Use the portfolio valuations from the years given in the preceding question. If the overall portfolio is growing at a linear rate, what should the value of the portfolio be in 2030?
- A. $180,000
- B. $260,000
- C. $340,000
- D. $580,000
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
(B) Based on the numbers in the previous question, the portfolio is increasing by $60,000 every 10 years. You add $60,000 to the 2020 value of $200,000 to get $260,000. Alternatively, you could calculate the slope of increase. However, noticing this simple pattern will save you time.
