Sticker price= base price + options + destination charge

Sticker price= $22,510+$8,062+$770

Sticker price= $31,342

-Dealer's percent of the base price: It is 91% of the base price:

$22,510*91%= $20,484

-Dealer's percent of the options price: It is 88% of the options:

$8,062*88%= $7,094

-Estimated dealer's cost= Percent of base price+percent of options price+destination charge

Estimated dealer's cost= $20,484+$7,094+$770

Estimated dealer's cost=$28,348
