Case Study #2
Data:
Matt has another option with the same $1,000 loan at 12 percent for two years. But now he wants to pay it back over twenty-four months and he has no other fees.
Calculations:
Using the simple interest and monthly payments calculate:
A. the monthly payments
B. the total interest paid
C. the APR of this loan
Note: The simple-interest method for installment loans is simply using your calculator’s loan amortization function.
