Create an Excel spreadsheet to enable users to calculate can compare 3 car loans. The objective is to see the Total Amount Paid for a given loan amount, with different interest rates and a number of finance months. Allow the user to enter car price and down payment amount in cells that will be used by all 3 loan options. Add charts to compare the three loans visually. Make sure to compare monthly, months, as well as the total cost of the call after all payment, is done.
The 3 car loans that I have considered below are:
Loan 1: Loan amount is $100,000 with 0 down payment and payment to be made in 24 months with interest rate of 12%.
Here monthly payment will be = PMT(12%/12, 24, 90000) = $4,707.35 per month
Loan 2: Loan amount is $100,000 with 0 down payment and payment to be made in 12 months with interest rate of 12%
Here monthly payment will be = PMT(12%/12, 12, 100000) = $8,884.88 per month
Loan 3: Loan amount is $100,000 with 0 down payment and payment is made in 18 months with interest rate of 18%
Here monthly payment will be = PMT(18%/12, 18, 100000) = $6,380.58 per month
The excel for all the 3 options are provided below:
