Answer:

B. An increase in i, the interest rate, will create an increase in P, the monthly payment.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the formula for the monthly payment as,

P=\frac{i \times PV}{1-(1+i)^{-n} },

where P = monthly payment, i = rate of interest, PV = present value and n = time period.

Now, as i increase we get that (1+i) increases and so (1+i)^{n} increases.

This gives us that, \frac{1}{(1+i)^{n} } decreases and so 1-\frac{1}{(1+i)^{n}} decreases

Therefore, \frac{1}{1-(1+i)^{-n} } increases.

So, we get that as i increases , the value of P will increase.

Hence, option B is correct.

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer -  An increase in i, the interest rate, will create an increase in P, the monthly payment.

Step-by-step explanation:

The monthly payment formula is

p=\frac{r(PV)}{1-(1+r)^{-n} }

where p = monthly payment, r = rate of interest, n = time period and PV = present value.

Here 'r' is proportional to p. When r increases, p increases and vice versa.

Hence, option B is correct.

Summing up in simple language, we always see, when the rate of interest is higher, the installments are higher and when rate is lower the monthly installments are less.
