We want to donate a marble birdbath to the city park as a memorial to cats. We also want to set up a perpetual care fund to cover future expenses "forever." The initial cost of the bath is $5000. Routine annual operating costs are $200 per year, but every fifth year the cost will be $500 to cover major cleaning and maintenance as well as operation.

(b) How much is the present worth of this project if it is to be demolished after 75 years? The final $500 payment in the 75th year will cover the year's operating cost and the site reclamation.
