9. Jamel wants to buy a new CD player that costs $450. According to his budget, he can afford
payments up to $62.00 per month. Which of the three credit cards youve found would you

recommend Jamel use to purchase the CD player? Why?

Jemel should use the Enviro Classic Visa because it has the lowest annual percentage rate

of 11.25%. Since Jemel is not planning on paying off his entire purchase at once, it is to his

advantage to use a card that has a low APR.
