Inorder to find out the interest %, we shall equate present value of payment to loan taken. we will use trial and error method. The rate at which NPV becomes zero will be the interest rate.
First we are taking 5% monthy discount rate.
MONTHS | CASHFLOW | DISCOUNT FACTOR @ 5% PER MONTH | PRESENT VALUE |
0 | -$1,000 | 1.0000 | -$1,000.00 |
1 | $100 | 0.9524 | $95.24 |
2 | $100 | 0.9070 | $90.70 |
3 | $100 | 0.8638 | $86.38 |
4 | $100 | 0.8227 | $82.27 |
5 | $100 | 0.7835 | $78.35 |
6 | $100 | 0.7462 | $74.62 |
7 | $100 | 0.7107 | $71.07 |
8 | $100 | 0.6768 | $67.68 |
9 | $100 | 0.6446 | $64.46 |
10 | $100 | 0.6139 | $61.39 |
11 | $100 | 0.5847 | $58.47 |
12 | $700 | 0.5568 | $389.79 |
NPV = | $220.43 |
Since we have positive NPV, we will try a discount rate higher.
Let us take monthly discount rate as 7%
MONTHS | CASHFLOW | DISCOUNT FACTOR @ 7% PER MONTH | PRESENT VALUE |
0 | -$1,000 | 1.0000 | -$1,000.00 |
1 | $100 | 0.9346 | $93.46 |
2 | $100 | 0.8734 | $87.34 |
3 | $100 | 0.8163 | $81.63 |
4 | $100 | 0.7629 | $76.29 |
5 | $100 | 0.7130 | $71.30 |
6 | $100 | 0.6663 | $66.63 |
7 | $100 | 0.6227 | $62.27 |
8 | $100 | 0.5820 | $58.20 |
9 | $100 | 0.5439 | $54.39 |
10 | $100 | 0.5083 | $50.83 |
11 | $100 | 0.4751 | $47.51 |
12 | $700 | 0.4440 | $310.81 |
NPV = | $60.68 |
Since we have positive NPV, we will try higher discount rate.
Let us take monthly discount rate as 8%
MONTHS | CASHFLOW | DISCOUNT FACTOR @ 8% PER MONTH | PRESENT VALUE |
0 | -$1,000 | 1.0000 | -$1,000.00 |
1 | $100 | 0.9259 | $92.59 |
2 | $100 | 0.8573 | $85.73 |
3 | $100 | 0.7938 | $79.38 |
4 | $100 | 0.7350 | $73.50 |
5 | $100 | 0.6806 | $68.06 |
6 | $100 | 0.6302 | $63.02 |
7 | $100 | 0.5835 | $58.35 |
8 | $100 | 0.5403 | $54.03 |
9 | $100 | 0.5002 | $50.02 |
10 | $100 | 0.4632 | $46.32 |
11 | $100 | 0.4289 | $42.89 |
12 | $700 | 0.3971 | $277.98 |
NPV = | -$8.12 |
Since we have a negative NPV, Rate at which NPV = 0 will be between 7% and 8%.
Therefore IRR = 7% + [$60.68 / ($60.68 + $8.12)]
= 7.88% per month
So interest rate paid is 7.88% per month
