Fantasy Corp. has borrowed to invest in a project. The loan calls for a payment of $20,000 every month for four years. The lender quoted Fantasy a rate of 9.60 percent with monthly compounding. At what rate would you discount the payments to find the amount borrowed by Fantasy Corp.? (Round to two decimal places.)
Solution:
Given that Interest on loan, = 9.60% and frequency of compounding, = 12
We have to find the effective annual rate,
The effective annual rate, is given by:-
= 1.1003 - 1 = 0.1003 or 10.03%
Hence, the payments to the amount borrowed by Fantasy Corp. would be discounted at 10.03%
