In Direct formula method:

If the rate of appreciation r, the initial value I, the final value V, and the period of appreciation n, the formula for appreciation is given by:

V = I(1 + r)ⁿ

In our case, we need to work out the value of n which is number of years in between 2010 and 2012.

So, n = 2012 - 2010 = 2 years

Put the values we have:

⇛180000 = I(1.20)² [ Increases 20% every year ]

⇛180000 = 1.44I

⇛I = 180000/1.44

⇛I = 125000

So, in 2010, the value of the vase was $125000
