QUESTION 2
Four years ago, Clarence's Car Company purchased a bus for R1 850 000; it is
now worth R920 000. To purchase a new bus now would cost the company
R2 680 000.
2.1 Calculate the annual rate of depreciation of the value of the bus, expressed
as a percentage correct to two decimal places, assuming the rate is based
on a reducing balance. (4)
2.2 Four years ago, Clarence set up a sinking fund to cover the purchase of a
new bus now. The fund earned interest at 4,2% per annum, compounded
monthly. The old bus is traded in to purchase the new bus and his final
payment to the fund is made three months before the end of the four years.
Calculate what his monthly contribution to the fund should have been if he
started paying exactly four years ago. (8)

QUESTION 3
3.1 Calculate the value of a single deposit Tshepang must invest at an annual
interest rate of 8,2%, compounded quarterly, so that the account generates
R1 000 interest in one year. (6)
3.2 Lohini invested R2 600 and R1 800 in two separate accounts at the same
time. Both accounts earn simple interest rates, but the R2 600 account
earns interest at a rate that is 2,5% per annum more than the interest rate
on the R1 800 account. After a year, the two accounts together have earned
R274 interest. Calculate the larger of the two interest rates, as a
percentage, correct to two decimal places. (8)
3.3 Calculate to the nearest month how long it will take for R10 000 invested at
7,2% per annum, compounded monthly, to yield the same value as R12 000
invested at 6,4% per annum, compounded monthly. (8)

QUESTION 4
The natural lifespan of a rhino is 50 years. Females, who form 65% of the
population, have only one calf every four years. The natural survival rate of a calf
is 82%. The territorial space of rhinos is large, and hence South Africa's carrying
capacity for rhinos is estimated to be only 40 000. There are currently about
18 000 rhinos in South Africa.
4.2 Two different graphs, (a) and (b), of this population model are to be sketched.
Describe the shape of the discrete graphs by choosing one word from the list
below:
(a) The rhino population P (on the y-axis) is sketched against time n (on
the x-axis). (2)
∆𝑃
(b) The proportional growth rate 𝑃 (on the y-axis) is sketched against
the rhino population P (on the x-axis). (2)
4.3 Calculate, correct to three decimal places, the intrinsic growth rate of rhinos
per four-year cycle. (4)
4.4 South Africa loses 4 000 rhinos to poaching every four years. Taking this
new information into account, recalculate the intrinsic growth rate per four-
year cycle required for the rhino population to at least remain stable. (8)
4.5 Assume that the intrinsic growth rate per four-year cycle is 0,4. Determine
an equivalent effective annual growth rate, and hence calculate the rhino
population after 6 years. (8)

QUESTION 5
Prey populations P
5.1 The letter P and the arrow indicate where on the axes to read off the initial
population of the prey. Do the following in a similar manner:
(a) Indicate with arrows and the letter A, where on the axes to read off
the equilibrium population of each species. (4)
(b) Indicate with an arrow and the letter B, where on the axis to read off
the maximum population of the predators. (2)
5.2 The letter Q and the encircled region indicate where on the phase plot a
decreasing prey population and an increasing predator population occurs
for the second time. Do the following in a similar manner:
(a) Indicate with an encircled region and the letter C, where on the
phase plot the predator population is decreasing most rapidly for the
first time. (2)
(b) Indicate with an encircled region and the letter D, where on the
phase plot the change in the populations is the greatest from one
time period to the next. (2)
5.3 Use dotted lines and draw in the axes that divide the phase plot into the four
quadrants that indicate the different ways in which the populations increase
or decrease. (4)

QUESTION 6
At the start of the new year, Collin makes a once-off deposit of R20 000 into an
account that earns 4,8% interest per annum, compounded monthly. He is
determined to make further deposits at the end of each month for the next year
into the same account. His first monthly deposit will be R400, and thereafter he will
increase each monthly deposit by 0,5% of the previous month's deposit.
6.1 Calculate the balance in Collin's account at the end of each of the first three
months, just after his monthly deposit has been made. (8)
6.2 Design a recursive formula that will determine the balance in Collin's
account at the end of each month, just after his monthly deposit has been
made. (6)
