Let’s assume that the old clunker you have been driving needs $500 in repairs in order to pass an annual car inspection. You are considering buying a new car, and you contact car dealers and banks to determine the best deal you can get on a car loan. Assume two different scenarios: (a) The lowest interest rate you find on a five-year car loan is 10 percent, and the annual rate of inflation for the next five years will be
9 percent. (b) The lowest interest rate you can find on a five-year car loan is 6 percent, and the annual rate of inflation for the next five years will be 1 percent.

The lowest interest rate you can find on a five-year car loan is 6 percent, and the annual rate of inflation for the next five years will be 1 percent.

Explanation:

Both year of repayment stands for five years at 10% and 6%, which means the interest of 6% will be acceptable as the inflation in the next five years will be 1% unlike the other one with 9% inflation rate in five years
