Answer:

<u>The correct answer is B. $ 1,649</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Miles per year Eric drives = 16,000

Cost of gallon of gas = $ 2.99

Miles per gallon Eric gets = 29

2. How much does Eric spend on gas per year?

1. Let's find our the number of gallons of gas Eric spends per year:

Number of gallons = Miles per year Eric drives/Miles per gallon Eric gets

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Number of gallons = 16,000/29

Number of gallons = 551.72

2. Let's calculate the cost of 551.72 gallons of gas:

Cost = Number of gallons Eric spends per year * Cost of gallon of gas

Cost = 551.72 * 2.99

Cost = $ 1,649.64

<u>The correct answer is B. $ 1,649</u>

Elmer purchased a used vehicle that depreciates under a straight line method. The initial value of the car is $9600 and the salv

Answer:

The depreciation each year is option B. $1500.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial value of car = $9600

Salvage value = $600

Salvage value is the final value of product after all the depreciation have been applied on the product.

So, total depreciation on the car = $\$9600 - \$600 \Rightarrow \$9000$

Also, it is given that the depreciation occurs at a straight line method i.e. same depreciation occurs every year.

Depreciation in 6 years = $9000

Depreciation in 1 year =

$\dfrac{\$9000}{6} \Rightarrow \$1500$

Hence, option B. $1500 is the correct answer for the depreciation every year.
