The price of the car is 950 dollars.
he paid 50 dollars for downpayment 
=> 950 dollars - 50 dollars = 900 dollars to be paid for 12 months 
=> 12 months = 1 year which have 18% annual interest.
=> 900 dollars * .18 = 162 dollars
=> 900 + 162 = 1062 dollars
=> 1062 / 12 = 88.5 dollars is his monthly
