Hi there,

We are given that the car buyer paid $26,000 for his sports car. To find the finance charge, you must subtract this from the total of his 48 payments. 48 · 619.15 - 26000 = $3719.20. Notice that you never needed the 6.76% APR because that was used to find the monthly payment. The answer to your problem is $3719.20.
