Question

You are borrowing money to buy a car. If you can make payments of $320 per month starting one month from now at an interest rate of 12%, how much will you be able to borrow for the car today if you finance the amount over 4 years

Answer 1

Answer:

the present value is $12,151.67

Explanation:

The computation of the amount that should be borrowed today i.e. present value is shown below:

Given that

PMT = $320

Rate of interest = 12 ÷ 12% = 1%

NPER = 4 × 12 = 48

FV = $0

The formula is shown below

= -PV(RATE;NPER;PMT;FV;TYPE)

After applying the above formula, the present value is $12,151.67
