Increase: $969.93 New Price: $18,604

Step-by-step explanation:

I got this answer by finding out how much of the initial price 5.5% was, it ended being 969.925 so I rounded that to 969.23 so that I may found how much the price increased, then I added the increase price to the initial price so that I may find out how much the car would cost next year which is, $18,604.
