Installment Plans

An installment plan is where...

• customers pay for expensive items, in equal payments over a period of time

• customers pay for expensive items whenever they have the money

• customers pay for half up front and then half later when they get their item

• customers pay a fee to have their purchase installed in their home

When we estimate using 10% of a number, the mental math is to...

• add 10

• subtract 10

• multiply by 10

• divide by 10
