John is a very cost-conscious investor. His rule of thumb is that it costs $300 per year, starting in the first year of vehicle life to maintain an automobile. This expense increases by $300 each year over the life of the car. John is now considering the purchase of a five-year old car with 30 comma 000 miles on it for $6 comma 000. How much money will John have to set aside now to pay for maintenance (as a lump sum) if he keeps this car for eight years? John's interest rate is 8% per year.
