Ann Hopkins borrowed $60,000 for her child’s education. She must repay the loan at the end of 8 years in one payment with 512% i
mart [117]

The Maturity Value that Ann must pay is $89,461.

Assuming the rate of interest is compounded annually.

Given,

Principal value = $60,000 = P

Rate of interest = 5.12% = i

Number of years = 8 = T

Since maturity value = Amount

Now, using the formula for calculating the amount,

Amount = P × {(1+i)^T}

Now, substituting the given values in the above formula for amount we get,

Amount = $60,000 × {(1+0.0512)^8}

             = $60,000 × {(1.0512)^8}

             = $60,000 × 1.49101776418

             = $89,461.0658

             = $89,461 (Approximately)

Hence, The Maturity Value that Ann must pay is $89,461.

Pmt is the payment = $6%/2 * 1,000 = $30

Pv is the present value = $955

Fv is future value or face value = $1,000

= 3.20% * 2 (because this is a semi annual rate)

= 6.40%
