Answer #1

a]

Amount financed is calculated using PV function in Excel :

rate = 15.28%/12 (converting annual rate into monthly rate)

nper = 60 (total number of monthly payments)

pmt = -188.07 (Monthly payment. This is entered with a negative sign because it is a payment)

PV is calculated to be $7,856.82

: х v f =PV(15.28%/12,60,-188.07) D E _ _ B C A $7,856.82 |

b]

Finance charge = deferred price - amount financed

Finance charge = $11,284.20 - $7,856.82

Finance charge = $3,967.38
