The banks would like a shorterloan, four years inlength, while Sahara would prefer a long maturity of six years.

Annual Loan Payment = Loan Amount / PVAF (12.255%, 4)
Annual Loan Payment = $220000000 / 3.021109
Annual Loan Payment = $72820946.17
b. the annual amortizing loan payments forSahara’s loanpreferences
Annual Loan Payment = Loan Amount / PVAF (11.754%, 6)
Annual Loan Payment = $220000000 / 4.140212484
Annual Loan Payment = $53137369.36
c. Annual payments if Bank consortium loan stretched to 6 years
Annual Loan Payment = Loan Amount / PVAF (12.255%, 6)
Annual Loan Payment = $220000000 / 4.081884975
Annual Loan Payment = $5389668.17
Annual Loan Payment will drop by = $72820946.17 - 5389668.17
Annual Loan Payment will drop by = $18924278.00
