Sam paid $10,000 upfront for a truck priced at $96,400. He will pay the remaining sum of money by monthly installments of $600 each. How many years will it take Sam to pay off all the installments?

Respuesta :

Sam will need to spend $600 each month for 12 years to pay off all installments.

Explain the term monthly installments?

  • A set payment made by such a borrower to a lender on a predetermined date each month is known as an equated monthly installment (EMI).
  • Each month, EMIs are applied both to interest and principle in order to completely pay off the loan within a given time frame.

For the stated question-

Total amount = $96,400

Remaining amount = $96,400 - $10,000 = $86,000.

monthly installments = $600

Thus,

Number of months = Remaining amount / monthly installments

Number of months =  $86,000/ $600

Number of months = 144 months

Number of months = 144/12 = 12 years.

Thus, Sam will need to spend $600 each month for 12 years to pay off all the installments.
