Answer:

  • the total installment is $936
  • the carrying charges are $186
  • the monthly rate to buy the items are 19.23 or 20 months

Step-by-step explanation:

$39 for 24 months comes to ...

$39 × 24 = $936

The "carrying charges" are the difference between the cash price and the installment price:

$936 -750 = $186

Saving at the rate of $39 per month, it would take ...

$750/$39 = 19.23 months about 20 months to save up the cash price.

Often, such savings would come from a once-a-month paycheck, so it would take more than 19 such paychecks to save the required amount.

hope it will help :)
