The original note was for $15,000, with interest at 9% per annum compounded monthly. After 26 monthly payments, Chloe considers getting a loan from the bank to pay her debts in one lump sum. She would pay the bank $186 per month for the next 30 months.

  1. a) Find the original monthly payment made to the store.
  2. b) Find the lump-sum payoff amount she needs to take loan from the bank.
  3. c) What monthly rate of interest is the bank charging on this loan???
