Answer:

Yes, his calculation is reasonable. He will have about $16.67 left.

Step-by-step explanation:

200 - (200 * .2) = $160 <em>Subtract money for savings</em>

99.95 + (99.95 * .07) + (17*2) + (17 * .07) + (17 * .07) = $143.33 <em>Add taxes</em>

160 - 143.33 = $16.67 <em>Subtract money for purchases from money left after savings</em>
