On January 1, Year 1, Turner Company borrowed $58,000 from Lessing Inc. and signed a three-year installment note to be paid in three equal payments at the end of each year. The present value of an annuity of $1 for 3 periods at 7% is 2.62432. What is the amount of the installment payment?
Amount borrowed = $58,000
Number of annual payments (n) = 3
Interest rate (i) = 7%
Present value annuity factor (7%,3) = 2.62432
Annual installment payment x Present value annuity factor (7%,3) = Amount borrowed
Annual installment payment x 2.62432 = 58,000
Annual installment payment = 58,000/2.62432
= $22,100.96 (or $22,101 : if rounded off to two decimal)
