Answer:

  a) $15,779.70

  b) $13,679.70

  c) $210.92

Step-by-step explanation:

a) When tax is added, the total cost is ...

  total = price × (1 +tax rate)

  total = $14,775 × 1.068 = $15,779.70

__

b) The amount financed is the difference between the total cost and the down payment.

  financed = total - down35

  financed = $15,779.70 -2100 = $13,679.70

__

c) The monthly payment is found using the amortization formula. It can also be found using any of a number of financial calculators, spreadsheets, or apps.

  A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^-n) . . . . annual rate r, n monthly payments, principal P

  A = $13,679.70(0.035/12)/(1 -(1 +0.035/12)^-72) ≈ $210.92
