C) $87.28

Answer:

The answer is : C. $87.28

Step-by-step explanation:

You purchase a computer for $875.00 plus 5% sales tax.

So, total price becomes : [tex]875+(0.05\times875)[/tex] = $918.75

Monthly rate = [tex]14.25/12/100=0.011875[/tex]

So, 8 months rate = [tex]8\times0.011875[/tex] = 0.095

So, when a payment is missed, the interest charged is = [tex]0.095\times918.75[/tex]

= $87.28
