Answer #1

Loan value = purchase price - down payment = $27,000 - $5,000 = $22,000

Monthly loan payment is calculated using PMT function in Excel :

rate = 5% / 12   (converting annual rate into monthly rate)

nper = 3*12 (3 year loan with 12 monthly payments each year)

pv = 22000 (loan amount)

PMT is calculated to be $659.36

A1 - fac =PMT(5%/12,3*12,22000) D E F B C A ($659.36)! 1

Interest in any month = principal outstanding at beginning of month * 5% / 12

Principal portion of monthly payment = monthly payment minus interest portion of payment

principal outstanding at end of month = principal outstanding at beginning of month minus principal portion of monthly payment

A A B C D E F G H I $659,36 6 7 Principal Principal outstanding outstanding 1 Month Jat beginning Payment Interest Principal

AB C D E F G Principal Principal outstanding outstanding 1 Month Jat beginning Payment Interest Principal at end 26 25 $ 7,70

А в с D E F G H =PMT(5%/12,3 12,-22000) N =F2 =F7 N 000 =F9 Principal outstanding 1 Month at beginning Payment 2 1 22000 =$H$

4 A B C D E G Principal outstanding at end Principal outstanding 1 Month Jat beginning Payment =F25 =SH$2 =F26 =SH$2 =F27 =$H

Total interest = (monthly payment * total number of months) - loan amount

Total interest = ($659.36 * 3 * 12) - $22,000 = $1,736.95

Total cash outflow = tax + down payment + (monthly payment * total number of months)

Total cash outflow = $810 + $5,000 + ($659.36 * 3 * 12) = $29,546.95

The principal portion of the payment increases as the months progress.

The interest portion of the payment decreases as the months progress.
