At a certain supplier, a machine of type A costs $20,000 and a machine of type B costs $60,000. Each machine can be purchased by making a 20 percent down payment and repaying the remainder of the cost and the finance charges over a period of time. If the finance charges are equal to 40 percent of the remainder of the cost, how much less would 2 machines of type A cost than 1 machine of type B under this arrangement?  Options:
A) $10,000
B) $26,400
C) $12,000
D) $12,800
E) $13,200
1 machine of type B will cost: 20% down payment of 60,000 = 12,000plusremaining sum (50,000-12,000=48,000) with 40% of finance charges 48,000*1.4=67,200 --&gt; 12,000+67,200=79,200;   2 machine of type A will cost: 20% down payment of 2*20,000 = 8,000plusremaining sum (40,000-8,000=32,000) with 40% of finance charges 32,000*1.4=44,800 --&gt; 8,000+44,800=52,800;   Difference = 79,200 - 52,800 = 26,400.   Answer: $26,400.
