(a) The refund claimed by a consumer pursuant to section 4 of the Wheelchair Lemon Law, whether through the Division of Consumer Affairs motorized wheelchair dispute resolution system or a manufacturer's informal dispute resolution process, shall include:

1. The total purchase price of the wheelchair including finance charges, sales tax or, in the case of a lease, the total sum of lease payments made, including any down payment,

2. The cost of any necessary modifications arranged, installed or made by the manufacturer or its dealer within one year after the original date of delivery,

3. Other charges or fees, including, but not limited to, actual expenses incurred by the consumer for the rental of a motorized wheelchair equivalent to the consumer's motorized wheelchair for the period during which the consumer's motorized wheelchair was out of service due to a nonconformity.

(b) From the total sum of items in (a) above, a deduction shall be made, representing an allowance for use. This deduction shall be calculated as follows: the full purchase price of the motorized wheelchair shall be multiplied by a fraction, the denominator of which is 1,825 and the numerator of which is equal to the number of days that the wheelchair was used before the consumer first reported the problem to the dealer or the manufacturer.
