Answer #1

We can use excel function PMT to find the montly payment

PMT parameters: rate, nper, PV, FV

rate = Monthly effective rate = (1 + 0.04)^(1/12) - 1 = 0.003273739782

nper = 3 * 12 = 36

PV = 0

FV = 10000

Use excel function,PMT

PMT = -$262.18443925

(Ignore the negative sign)

Monthly payment = $$262.18443925

Can you please upvote? Thank You :-)
