Company X:
Unit: $575
Surcharge 4%
Installation charge: $82.50

Company Y:
Unit: $530
Surcharge: 3%
Installation charge: $93.00

Questions asks for the Purchase Price and Installation only.

Company X = $575+$82.50+.04($575) = $680.50
Company Y = $530+$93.00+.03($530) = $638.90

X-Y or $680.50-$638.90 is the price difference aka amount saved by going with the cheaper company[spoiler] (Company Y) is $41.60 or A[/spoiler][/spoiler]
