Question

A real estate agent is considering changing her cell phone plan. There are three plans to choose from, all of which involve a monthly service charge of $20. Plan A has a cost of $.40 a minute for daytime calls and $.20 a minute for evening calls. Plan B has a charge of $.50 a minute for daytime calls and $.14 a minute for evening calls. Plan C has a flat rate of $75 with 200 minutes of calls allowed per month and a charge of $.38 per minute beyond that, day or evening. Determine the total charge under each plan for this case: 130 minutes of day calls and 50 minutes of evening calls in a month. What are the costs of plan A, B, and C?

Explanation / Answer

Plan A B C Day call 52      [130*.40] 65    [.50*130] Evening call 10     [50*.20] 7      [.14*50] Day+ evening 75 Total cost 62 72 75
