1 answer:
Answer:
1. $1,821.76
2. 7.87%
Explanation:
We use the PMT formula that is shown in the attachment below:
Provided that
Present value = $75,200
Future value = $0
Rate of interest = 7.6% ÷ 2 = 0.6333333%
NPER = 48 months
The formula is shown below:
= PMT(Rate;NPER;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after solving this, the monthly payment is $1,821.76
2. Now the effective annual rate is
= (1 + APR ÷ number of months)^number of months - 1
= (1 + 7.6% ÷ 12)^12 - 1
= 7.87%
