Explanation / Answer

A

Loan Amount = $162000

Amortization period = 3 years

Rate of interest = 5%

Payments will be made monthly but in the question we've been asked to calculate one annual payment.

Annual Payment = Loan amount * Annual Interest rate/ ( 1 – (1+ Annual Interest Rate)^-number of payments)

                              = $162000 * 0.05 /(1-(1.05)^-3) = $59487.79

You will not be able to pay this amount as you have a budget constraint which limits your paying ability to $18000 annually

B

Same formula will be used to calculate annual payment over amortization period of 30 years

Loan Amount = $162000

Amortization period = 30 years

Rate of interest = 5%

Annual Payment = Loan amount * Annual Interest rate/ ( 1 – (1+ Annual Interest Rate)^-number of payments)

                              = $162000 * 0.05 /(1-(1.05)^-30) = $10538.33

This amount is well within your budget of $18000

C

Loan Amount = $162000

Amortization period = 30 years

Rate of interest = 5%

Annual Payment = Loan amount * Annual Interest rate/ ( 1 – (1+ Annual Interest Rate)^-numbers of payments)

                              = $162000 * 0.05 /(1-(1.05)^-30) = $10538.33
