Evander King is ordering a luxury convertible. The base price is $81,975. Options include satellite radio, $475; keyless entry, $555; navigation system, $1,250; and custom paint, $983. The destination charge is $890. The dealer's costs are 90% of the base price and 88% of the options price. The dealer will sell Evander the car for $200 more than the dealer's cost plus a 6% sales tax. What is the total cost of the convertible, including tax?

Answer: $82,403.28

Explanation:

475+555+1250+983 = 3263 (total option price)

81,975 (total base price)

0.9 * 81,975 = 73,777.5 + 200

.88 * 3263 = 2,871.44

1.06 * (73,977.5 + 2871.44 + 890) = 82,403.28 (Rounded to nearest tenth)
