Jim Pine wants to learn golf. He makes the following purchases :

Used Clubs - $150

Bag - $75

Golf Balls and Tees - $22.50

Shirt - $12.50

Shoes - $65.00

Tax Rate - 6.5%

Facility - $10 per round.

How much will it cost Jim total to play once a week for 12 weeks?

Total cost = $466.13

Answer 2

It would cost $466.13.

We add together the cost for the clubs, bag, balls, tees, shirt and shoes. We then multiply it by 1.065 (6.5%=6.5/100=0.065; however we add 100% of the cost to that, so 1.065) . We then add 10*12 to this, since he is paying $10 for 12 weeks. This comes to $466.13.
