Question

Wanda takes $3,000 from her savings account that pays 5 percent interest per year and uses the funds to purchase a computer for $3,000 for her business. At the end of the year the computer is worth $2,000. The costs that Wanda's business pays for use of the computer is ________ for that year.

Answer 1

$1,150

Step-by-step explanation:

Implicit rental rate refers to the cost that a company incurred by spending money as opposed to what that money could earn if it were invested in something else. Therefore since in a year the computer was worth $1000 less and Wanda also lost out on the 5% that the savings account would have generated which would be $150. Then her total cost is that of $1,150
