Consider the following two monetary incentives when purchasing a desktop computer at the regular price of $299.
• 25% Off All Desktops with Regular Price of $200 or More
• $70 Rebate on Any Purchase of $200 or More.
Find the final price of the better incentive, after the discount has been applied. Round the answer to two decimal places. (1 point)
The final price of the computer after the discount from the better incentive has been applied is S
To determine the final price of the better incentive, we need to compare the two options and choose the one that gives us the lower price.
Option 1: 25% Off All Desktops with Regular Price of $200 or More
25% of $299 = 0.25 * $299 = $74.75 discount
Final price = $299 - $74.75 = $224.25
Option 2: $70 Rebate on Any Purchase of $200 or More
Final price = $299 - $70 = $229
Therefore, the final price of the better incentive after the discount has been applied is $224.25.
