The amount to pay off the loan is $14,640. Judy will save $2,208 in interest if she pays off her car loan now. Judy is also considering investing the $14,676 in a certificate of deposit (CD). She is guaranteed a return of 3% on a four-year CD. How much would Judy earn from the CD? Which of the two alternatives offers the better return?
