Question

Ian loaned his friend $20,000 to start a new business. He considers this loan to be an investment, and therefore requires his friend to pay him an interest rate of 8% on the loan. He also expects his friend to pay back the loan over the next our years by making annua payments atthe end of each year an texted and asked that you help him calculate the annual payments that he should expect to receive so that he can recover his initial investment and earn the agreed-upon 8% on his investment. Calculate the annual payment and complete the following capital recovery schedule: Beginning Amount Interest Paid Principal Paid Year Payment Ending Balance 1 $20,000.00 4 $0.01

Explanation / Answer

Let X be the Annual Repayment amount.
This means that present value of X discounted @ 8% should give the loan value i.e $20000.
i.e
$20000 = X/1.08 + X/1.08^2 + X/1.08^3 + X/1.08^4.

or $20000 = X(1/1.08 + 1/1.08^2 + 1/1.08^3 + 1/1.08^4 )

or $20000 = 3.3121 X

or X = $6038 (Ans)

Ans : The annual repayment value is $6038.
