You're thinking of buying a car to travel around in, rather than paying $2,788 at the end of every year to use the train. You can buy an old second hand car for $5,000 now (t=0), and sell it after 14 years for $3,500 (t=14). You estimate that the car will cost $5,500 per year in fuel, insurance, registration and maintenance, paid in arrears, so there will be 14 payments from t=1 to t=14 inclusive. The required return is 13% pa. Select the most correct statement. The equivalent annual cost (EAC) of the car is: Select one: O a. $6,040 so the train is cheaper than the car. O b. $6,193 so the train is cheaper than the car. $6,293 so the train is cheaper than the car. O c. O d. $12,455 so the train is cheaper than the car. O e. $39,031 so the train is cheaper than the car.
