Gerry likes driving small cars and buys nearly identical ones whenever the old one needs replacing. Typically, he trades in his old car for a new one costing about $15,000. A new car warranty covers all repair costs above standard maintenance (standard . are constant over the life of the car) for the first two years. After that, his records show an average repair expense (over standard maintenance) of $2500 in the third year (at the end of the year), increasing by 50 percent per year thereafter. If a 30 percent declining-balance depreciation rate is used to estimate salvage values and interest is 9 percent, how often should Gerry get a new car?
