Answer:
=$856.67
Explanation:
Car option A
The total costs of option A for one year
Monthly repayment : $368 x 12 = $ 4,416
Gas
Consumption at 18 miles per gallons, for 12,000 miles
the consumption will be 12,000 / 18 = 666.67 gallons
cost of gas consumed : $2.89 x 666.67 = $1,926.67
The total cost of Car Option " A " is monthly repayments plus the cost of gas
=$ 4,416 + $1,926.67
=$ 6,342.67
Car option B
The total annual cost for car option B
monthly repayments :$409 x 12 = $ 4,908
cost of gas: consumption 60 per gallons, for 12,000miles
=12,000 /60 =200 gallons
cost of gas: 200 x $2.89= $578
Total cost for car option B
=$ 4,908 + $578
=$ 5,486
Annual difference :
=$6,342.67 - $5,486
=$856.67
