We can split this all up into different parts then put it together at the end to make things easier.

Firstly, she makes those 18 monthly payments, so 93.27*18 = $1678.86

Then, each one of those has a 3.85 surcharge for each one, so 3.85*18 = $69.30

Finally, she has 9 lots of late fees, so 9*41.50 = $373.50

Now we can just add these together to get the total cost - 1678.86+69.30+373.50 = $2121.66
