Explanation / Answer
Hi, I have used 365 day calculation because somewhere it is mentioned 365 and somehwere 360 so I chose 365 for all
1.
Future value=15000*(1+9/12*5.5%)=15618.75
Interest=15618.75-15000=618.75
2.
Future Value=2300*(1+9%*137/365)=2377.69589
Interest=2377.69589-2300=77.69589
3.
=(1650/1200-1)/8%=4.6875
4.
Amount of payment=60000*(1+8*5.5%)=86400
Interest=86400-60000=26400
