Solutions

Expert Solution

Loan	15000
Interest	14.0%
Time	3 years

Annuity Factor	=(1-((1+r)^-n))/r
	=(1-((1+14%)^-3))/14%
	2.3216

Answer to i)
Annual Payment	=15000/2.3216
Annual Payment =	$6,460.97


Answer to ii)

Loan Amortization Schedule
Month	Loan Beginning (A)	*Interest (B = A14%%)**	Monthly Payment (C)	Principal Payment (D = C-B)	Loan Outstanding (E = A + B - C)
1	15000.00	2100.00	6460.97	4360.97	10639.03
2	10639.03	1489.46	6460.97	4971.51	5667.52
3	5667.52	793.45	6460.97	5667.52	0.00

Answer to iii)
Interest payment is based on opening outstanding balance of loan and hence reduces with each payment of principal amount, that’s how it declines with passage of time
