Personal Savings and Consumer Credit: Part Three — Test

Question 2 • Advanced Financial Algebra

Julio bought a car for $15,000, using $5,000 in cash and financing the remaining $10,000 with a loan. They also spend $100 each month on car insurance and $50 on fuel. What is the liability in this scenario?

Answer
A
the $10,000 car loan
B
the $100 monthly insurance payment
C
the $5,000 cash payment
D
the $50 monthly fuel cost

Explanation

A liability is a debt or financial obligation that must be repaid. Julio still owes the lender $10,000 for the car, so the car loan is the liability. The insurance and fuel costs are expenses, while the $5,000 cash payment has already been paid.
