Answer: $20,478.78

Gold

10,000/2 = 5000

Rate and period are in years. Convert to semi annual basis.

when calculating net price, why do you think loans are not deducted from sticker price even if they are typically offered to you
storchak [24]

The reason loans are not deducted from sticker price even if they are typically offered to you in a financial aid package is that "the net price is actual money that you or any individual will be paying."

This is evident because a net price is the sticker price minus the student's financial aid, scholarships, grants, and other support.

Unlike sticker price, the net price is the college student's amount would eventually pay in his college years.

A sticker price is the whole amount of the annual or session cost of a college education.

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that college students should concentrate more on the net price instead of a sticker price.
