A) Mr. Bill. S. Preston, Esp., purchased a new house for $150,000 and paid $25,000 upfront. How much does he need to borrow to purchase the house?
B) If Bill agrees to pay the loan over the next 10 years in 10 equal end-of-year- payments plus 14 percent compound interest on the unpaid balance, what will these equal payments be?
Explanation / Answer
A)
He needs to borrow $125,000. ($150,000-$25,000)
B)
Annual payment = [P×r×(1+r)^n]÷[(1+r)^n-1]
P is Principal payable
r is interest rate
n is number of payments
= [$125,000×14%×(1+14%)^10]÷[(1+14%)^10-1]
= $23,964.2
