Q: A major repair on the suspension system of Jane's 3-year old car cost her $2,000 because the warranty expired after 2 years of ownership. Based on this experience, she will plan on additional $2000 expenses every 3 years henceforth. Also, she spends $800 every 2 years for maintenance now that the warranty is over. This is for years 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 when she plans to donate the car to charity. Use these costs to determine Jane's equivalent perpetual annual cost (for years 1 through infinity) at i= 5% per year, il cars she owns in the future have the same cost pattern.
