Question 9
Solve the problem. Round to the nearest cent.
The list price of a car is $8760. It is available at either a 10/20/5 or a 35/30 trade discount series. Which trade discount series gives the better deal? By how much?
10/20/5, $2006.04
10/20/5, $2628.00
35/30, $2628.00
35/30, $2006.04
| 10/20/5, $2006.04 | ||
| 10/20/5, $2628.00 | ||
| 35/30, $2628.00 | ||
| 35/30, $2006.04 |
Solution
Discont in first series
Total Price = 8760
if discount is 10/20/5, then price of the car will be
New Price = 8760*0.9*0.8*0.95 = 5991.84
In second series
New price = 8760*0.65*0.7 = 3985.8
So the second discount eries will be better deal and
difference will be = 5991.84 - 3985.8 = $2006.04
Correct option is D.
