I think it’s the second option
2,180,000 80,000 being rounded up from 78,421
In an installment loan, a lender loans a borrower a principal amount P, on which the borrower will pay a yearly interest rate of i (as a fraction, e.g. a rate of 6% would correspond to i=0.06) for n years. The borrower pays a fixed amount M to the lender q times per year. At the end of the n years, the last payment by the borrower pays off the loan.
After k payments, the amount A still owed is
<span>A = P(1+[i/q])k - Mq([1+(i/q)]k-1)/i,
= (P-Mq/i)(1+[i/q])k + Mq/i.
</span>The amount of the fixed payment is determined by<span>M = Pi/[q(1-[1+(i/q)]-nq)].
</span>The amount of principal that can be paid off in n years is<span>P = M(1-[1+(i/q)]-nq)q/i.
</span>The number of years needed to pay off the loan isn = -log(1-[Pi/(Mq)])/(q log[1+(i/q)]).
The total amount paid by the borrower is Mnq, and the total amount of interest paid is<span>I = Mnq - P.</span>
Answer:
$17.21
Step-by-step explanation:
Just line up the decimals and then you add. But after you finished adding, make sure you just straight up bring the decimal down to your final answer to the question.
