We can compute this using the Annual depreciation charge

Use the formula:

depreciationcharge = (Co-Cn) i/[ (1+i) ^n-1) ]

where

Co = initial amount = $100,000

Cn - value after n years = $0

n = life of account = 6

i = interest rate=10%

Sunstituting all the values, we will get,

depreciation charge = $12960.74

The bank will have to pay Sara shouppe $12960.74 for the investment of $100000 with 10% interest.
