Question #306189

On January 1, 2019, Joan Campbell borrows $20,000 from Susan Rone and agrees to repay this amount in payments of $4,000 a year until the debt is paid in full. Payments are to be of an equal amount and are to include interest at 12% on the unpaid balance of principal at the beginning of each period. Assuming that the first payment is to be made on January 1, 2020, determine the number of payments of $4,000 each to be made and the amount of the final payment.


What is the future value on December 31, 2026, of 7 annual cash flows of $10,000 with the first cash payment made on December 31, 2019, and interest at 12% being compounded annually?

1.) Determine the number of payments of $4,000 each to be made and the amount of the final payment.


Year1=4000+(0.12×20000)=6,400Year 1=4000+(0.12\times20000)=6,400


Year2=4000+(0.12×16000)=5920Year 2=4000+(0.12\times16000)=5920


Year3=4000+(0.12×12000)=5440Year 3=4000+(0.12\times12000)=5440


Year4=4000+(0.12×8000)=4960Year 4=4000+(0.12\times8000)=4960


Year5=4000+(0.12×4000)=4480Year 5=4000+(0.12\times4000)=4480


There are 5 payments and the last payment will be $4,480.00


2.) What is the future value on December 31, 2026, of 7 annual cash flows of $10,000 with the first cash payment made on December 31, 2019, and interest at 12% being compounded annually?


FV=A×(1+r)71rFV=A\times\frac{(1+r)^{7}-1}{r}


FV=10,000×(1+0.12)710.12=100,890.12FV=10,000\times\frac{(1+0.12)^{7}-1}{0.12}=100,890.12


Therefore, the future value is $100,890
