10 years and will accumulate it by making annual (end-of-year) deposits into an<br />

b. How much must you deposit at <strong>the</strong> end of each of <strong>the</strong> next 10 years to accumulate<br />
<strong>the</strong> required amount?<br />
4–42 Loan payment Determine <strong>the</strong> equal annual end-of-year payment required each<br />
year, over <strong>the</strong> life of <strong>the</strong> loans shown in <strong>the</strong> following table, to repay <strong>the</strong>m fully<br />
during <strong>the</strong> stated term of <strong>the</strong> loan.<br />
Loan Principal Interest rate Term of loan (years)<br />

4–43 Loan amortization schedule Joan Messineo borrowed $15,000 at a 14%<br />
annual rate of interest to be repaid over 3 years. The loan is amortized into three<br />
equal annual end-of-year payments.<br />
a. Calculate <strong>the</strong> annual end-of-year loan payment.<br />
b. Prepare a loan amortization schedule showing <strong>the</strong> interest and principal<br />
breakdown of each of <strong>the</strong> three loan payments.<br />
c. Explain why <strong>the</strong> interest portion of each payment declines with <strong>the</strong> passage<br />
of time.<br />
4–44 Loan interest deductions Liz Rogers just closed a $10,000 business loan that is<br />
to be repaid in three equal annual end-of-year payments. The interest rate on <strong>the</strong><br />
loan is 13%. As part of her firm’s detailed financial planning, Liz wishes to<br />
determine <strong>the</strong> annual interest deduction attributable to <strong>the</strong> loan. (Because it is a<br />
business loan, <strong>the</strong> interest portion of each loan payment is tax-deductible to <strong>the</strong><br />
business.)<br />
a. Determine <strong>the</strong> firm’s annual loan payment.<br />
b. Prepare an amortization schedule for <strong>the</strong> loan.<br />
c. How much interest expense will Liz’s firm have in each of <strong>the</strong> next 3 years as<br />
a result of this loan?<br />
4–45 Monthly loan payments Tim Smith is shopping for a used car. He has found<br />
one priced at $4,500. The dealer has told Tim that if he can come up with a<br />
down payment of $500, <strong>the</strong> dealer will finance <strong>the</strong> balance of <strong>the</strong> price at a 12%<br />
annual rate over 2 years (24 months).<br />
a. Assuming that Tim accepts <strong>the</strong> dealer’s offer, what will his monthly (end-ofmonth)<br />
payment amount be?<br />
b. Use a financial calculator or Equation 4.15a (found in footnote 9) to help<br />
you figure out what Tim’s monthly payment would be if <strong>the</strong> dealer were<br />
willing to finance <strong>the</strong> balance of <strong>the</strong> car price at a 9% yearly rate.
