Suppose you take out a loan for $9,000, at 12% ordinary interest. If the amount of interest is $762.00, what is the time period?
DaniilM [7]
For the answer to the question above,
<span>Let's figure out the formula first
FV = PV(1+i/n)^(nt)
9762= 9000(1+0.12/12)^(12x)
9762= 9000(1.01)^12x
9762/9000=1.01^12x
1.08467=1.01^12x
ln1.08467/12 x ln1.01=0.681 years (8.17 months) same as my calculator
So,
0.681x360=
245.16 days is</span><span> the time period</span>
