You are purchasing a car for $12,465.00 plus 5.65% sales tax. you make a $1,300.00 down payment and have a fair credit score. how much interest is due at the end of the first month?

$989.10 is due at the end of the first month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of a car = $12,465

Sales Tax = 5.65%

5.65%    =  0.0565

12,465 × 0.0565 = 704.2725

Sales tax = 704.2725

Now we add this tax to the price of car

12,465 + 704.2725 = 13,169.2725

Total price of a car with sales tax = $13,169.27

You make a down payment = $1,300.00

Now your due payment = $13,169.27 - $1,300.00

Total due payment         = $11,869.27

If due payment will be paid in 12 months it will be divided by 12

Therefore  11,869.27 ÷ 12 = $989.10

$989.10 is due at the end of the first month.
