Answer:
John's estimated cost of owning and driving the car for three years is $17,500
Explanation:
The computation of the estimated cost for the three years is shown below:
= Purchase cost of Toyota + (annual cost of maintenance, registration, insurance, and gas × Number of years) - selling cost or scrap value
= $20,000 + ($1,500 × 3) - $10,000
= $20,000 + $7,500 - $10,000
= $27,500 - $10,000
= $17,500
The selling cost should be deducted so that accurate value can come and the annual cost is given for one year only but we have to compute for the three years so we multiply it by three years.
