Answer 1

Answer: $13293.59

Explanation:

The following information can be deduced from the question:

Number of periods (n) = 12

Interest rate(i) = 18%/12 = 1.5%

Purchase price = $145000

PVA = [1 -(1.015)^-12] / 0.015 = 10.90751

Monthly installments payment = Purchase price / PVA

= $145000 / 10.90751

= $13293.59
