Depreciation years$)$

Insurance

Garage rent

Automobile tax and license

Variable operating cost

$$5,020$

$$2,600$

The variable operating cost consists of gasoline, oil, tires, maintenance, and repairs. Kristen estimates, at her current rate of usage, the

car will have zero resale value in five years, so the annual straight$-$line depreciation is $$5,020.$ The car is kept in a garage for a monthly

fee.
