    Lets solve for the finance charge in dollars when Tim agreed to pay $36 for 12 months. We formulate an equation by enumerating the following:

    1.) Total amount that Tim paid for the DVD player is $36 times 12 months is equal to $432.

    2.) Total amount paid is the summation of DVD player original price plus the result of multiplication of finance percent charge and original price.

    Equation is $365 + ($365x%charge) = $432.

    Solve for % charge,

    %charge = ($432-$365) / $365

    %charge = 0.1834 or 18.4%

    Therefore, the finance charge in dollar is $67.
