Damien Smart is trying to decide whether to lease or purchase a new car costing $18,000. If he leases, he’ll have to pay a $600

security deposit and monthly payments of $450 over 36 month term of the closed-end-lease. On the other hand, if he buys the car, then he’ll have to make a $2,400 down payment and will finance the balance with a 36 month loan requiring monthly payments of $515; he’ll also have to pay a 6% sales tax ($1,080) on the purchase price, and he expects the car to have a residual value of $6,500 at the end of three years. Use the automobiles lease versus purchase analysis for in worksheet 5.1 to find the total cost of both the lease and the purchase and then recommend the best strategy for Damien.

If he leases.
$600 (for security deposit) + (450 x 36) for closed end lease
$600 + $16,200
Lease cost = 16,800

If he buys.
$2,400 (for down payment) + (515 x 36) for closed end lease + 1,080 (for 6% tax)
$2,400 + $18,540 + $1,080 = $22,020
Purchase cost = $22,020
After selling at the residual value of $6,500
Purchase cost minus Residual value
$22,020 - $6,500
=$15,520

So, if he leases he will not be able to have the residual value and he'll be spending more than if he buys. he'll actually be making a loss of $1,280.

Final thought: HE SHOULD BUY!

70=(4x+36)/2 figure this out please
adell [148]

Answer:

\boxed{\bold{\huge{\boxed{x = 26}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

70 = \frac{4x+36}{2}

<u>Multiplying both sides by 2</u>

70 * 2 = 4x+36

140 = 4x+36

<u>Subtracting 36 to both sides</u>

140 - 36 = 4x

104 = 4x

<u>Dividing both sides by 4</u>

26 = x

OR

x = 26

The equation of liner is y = -x - 6. Line s includes the point (-1, -3) and is parallel to line
Reptile [31]

Answer:

90 hardcover books

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by setting up a couple of equations.

Let's allow x to represent the number of paperbacks Tim owns, and allow y to represent the number of hardcover books he owns.

Using the information in the question, we can write the equations:

1)x = 4y-3

2) x+y=447

Let's rearrange equation 1 so that it is in standard form:

x-4y=-3

And then let's multiply equation 2 by 4 so that we can cancel out y when we solve the system of equations:

4(x+y=447)

4x+4y=1,788

Then we can add the two equations and solve for x:

  1) x-4y=-3

+ 2)4x+4y=1,788

------------------------------------

5x=1,785

x=357

So now we now the number of paperback books Tim has is 357. Let's plug this into one of the original equations to solve for the number of hardcover books (y):

357+y=447

y=90

And now we know that Tim owns 90 hardcover books.
