You work at an insurance agency. Your boss has asked you to purchase eight computer screens for the office. You are considering two online stores. The first store charges $629.99 total for the screens and offers free shipping. The second store charges $579.49 total for the same screens, and charges $39.99 for shipping all eight screens. Additionally, you have an online code for a $20 discount at the first store. What is the final cost for the store that offers the better deal?

Answer:

after you compute the total costs per store, you should purchase the computer screens from the first store

Step-by-step explanation:

the total cost for the first store = $629.99 (including freight) - $20 (discount coupon) = $609.99

the total cost for the second store = $579.49 (computer screens) + $39.99 (freight) = $619.48

after you compute the total costs per store, you should purchase the computer screens from the first store
