Mr. Bronson wants to be one of the investors in the new Sergio Leone movie called The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. He needs to borrow $1580000 from a bank at an interest rate of 6.9% compounded quarterly to invest in this movie. The loan will be repaid in 27 equal monthly payments. His first payment will be made one month after the day he borrows the money (i.e. at the end of month one.
Solution :-
Interest rate per quarter = 6.9% / 4 = 1.725%
Interest Rate Per Month = ( 1 + 0.069 / 4 )1/3 - 1 =
= 1.005717 - 1
= 0.005717
= 0.5717%
Total Monthly Installments = 27
Amount Financed = $1,580,000
Now Value of Each Monthly installments = $1,580,000 / PVAF ( 0.5717% , 27 )
= $1,580,000 / 24.9534
= $63,318.09
Therefore the amount of his monthly installment = $63,318.09
(b)
The Interest Payment = $7,143.95
Principal Payment = $56,174.14
