    The below statements in quote are missing from the question.

    "The advertised CD renewal rate is 6.13 percent. Antonio knows the in-store financing costs would not affect his taxes but he knows he'll pay taxes (25% federal and 5.75% state) on the CD interest earnings. Should he cash the CD or use in-store financing? Why?"

    Antonio should cash in the CD to pay for the golf clubs rather than opt for in-store financing arrangement, because after tax rate of CD is 4.25% which less than the cost of in-store financing at 5.23%

    Explanation:

    The interest on CD before tax deductions is 6.13%

    Total tax percentage due Federal and State governments = 25% + 5.75% = 30.75%

    After tax rate of CD = 6.13% (1 -.3075) = 4.25%
