Answer 1

Answer:

At the end of the maturity, company owes  $1893.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

The principal amount borrowed = $10,000

Rate of interest = 6.25%

Time (in year)  = 230 days =(230/365) year

Simple Interest = $\frac{P\times R \times T}{100}$

So, here SI =  $\frac{10,000 \times 6.25 \times 230}{ 365 \times 100}$

= $393.75

So, simple interest after 230 days = $393.75

Now, the amount to be  paid after the end of 230 days = Principal + interest

A = $10,000 + $393.75  =   $ 10,393.75

The total partial payment made within year = $3500 + $5000 = $8500

So, the remaining payment = Total amount - Total partial payments

=  $ 10,393.75 - $8,500    = $1893.75

Hence, at the end of the maturity, company owes  $1893.75.
