Explanation / Answer

Sol) Calculation of annual loan payments. Payments to annually for 5 years and required a 9% annual return. Amount of loan is $17,000. so we calculate the annual payments to be made

PMT = {PV+[PV+FV/(1+i)^N-1]}i

where pv= present value of the amount of loan PMT= annual payments to be made i= annual return

n = no of periods.

  PMT = {$17,000+[$17,000+$0/(1+0.09)^5-1]}0.09

= {$17,000+[$17,000+$0/0.5386]}0.09

={$17,000+$31,536.3123}0.09

= $4,370.70

  Annual loan payments is $4,370.70

B)  First payment will be applied to interest and to principal repayment.

  

$14,159.30.

Calculation of interest $17,000*0.09 =$1,530

Calculation of principal amount = $4,370.70-$1,530=$2,840.70

Period Begnining balance Payment Interest component Principal component Ending balance 1 $17,000 $4,370.70    1530 $2,840.70

$14,159.30.
