5. Peter borrowed $20,000 from a bank to buy a car at an interest rate 9% compounded monthly. This
loan will be repaid in equal monthly installments over 4years. Immediately after the 24th payment, Peter
decided to pay the remainder of the loan in a single payment. Compute the amount of the monthly
payment, the final single payment, and the total amount of interest that peter paid to the bank.
Effective rate, i.e. rate per month = 9%/12 = 0.75%
Peter will pay monthly installments for 24months, then a final single payment.
Monthly installments over 48 months = $20,000(A/P,0.75%,48) = $20,000(0.0249) = $498
Final single payment if he decides to pay it off after the 24th monthly payment
= $20,000 - $498(P/A,0.75%,24) = $20,000-$498(21.889) = $9099.27
Total amount of interest he paid the bank = $9099.27+($498*24) - $20,000 = $1051
