A 30-year loan of 1100 is repaid with payments at the end of each year.
Each of the first fifteen payments equals 155% of the amount of interest due. Each of the last fifteen payments is X.
The lender charges interest at an annual effective rate of 8%. Calculate X
a. 57
b. 65
c. 77
d. 82
e. 46
Outstanding balance after 15 payments = 560
calculate the equal annual payment for this loan.
Yearly payment of a loan is given by
X = L[r(1 + r)^n]/[(1 + r)^n - 1]
X = Annual payment
r = 0.08
n = 15
L= Loan amount = 560
X = 560*(0.08(1 + 0.08)^15)/((1 + 0.08)^15 - 1) = 65.42
X = 65.
Correct answer is Option B "65".
