A car company is offering a choice of deals. You can receive $1,500 cash back on the purchase or a 3.5 percent APR, 3-year loan. The price of the car is $17,500 and you could obtain a 3-year loan from your credit union, at 7.5 percent APR. Since the cash back is used to reduce the size of the loan, the cost of the car is entirely paid for with the debt. Therefore, the true cost of each deal can be compared through the monthly payment. Compute the monthly payment of each deal. Which one is cheaper? 3.5 percent APR offer $1,500 cash back offer
