Chichi purchased a used Honda CRV for RM8,000 at the beginning of last year and incurred the following operating costs: B. Depreciation (RM8,000/5 years) Insurance Parking space fee Road tax and license RM 1,600 RM 1,200 RM 360 40 RM Variable operating cost RM 0.14 per km The variable operating cost consists of petrol, oil, tyres, maintenance and repairs. Chichi estimates that, at her current rate of usage, the car will have zero resale value in five (5) years, so the annual straight-line depreciation is RMI,600. Chichi pay the parking space for a monthly fee.

![(c) Chichi is thinking about buying an expensive sport car to replace the car she bought
year. She would drive the same number of km regardless of which car she
owns and would rent the same parking space. The sport car's variable operating
costs would be roughly the same as the variable operating costs of her existing car.
However, her insurance and road tax and license costs would go up. Explain and
identify which costs are relevant in estimating the incremental costs of owning the
more expensive car.
