Answer:

This can be achieve using Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet. Please find attached the Excel file

Explanation:

we will need the following variables:

  • Payment (Down payment)
  • LoanAmt
  • InterestRate
  • MonthlyRate
  • NumberMonths

For clarity of will assume the following

Price of Car = $30,000

No. of Payment (Down Payment)= $10,000

Loan Amount =$20,000

Interest Rate = 15%

Number of Months =12

Repayment =12

We will need the following formulas:

Interest Rate =15/100 =0.15

Monthly Rate = Interest Rate/12 = 0.0125

Payment =[ LoanAmt * MonthlyRate * (1 + MonthlyRate)^NumberMonths]÷ [((1 + MonthlyRate)^NumberMonths) – 1]

Let LA= Loan Amount

MR= Monthly Rate

n=Number of Months

Payment = LA*MR*(1+MR)^n/(( 1+MR)^n-1)

Now (1+MR)n = (1+0.0125)^12 = 1.1608

Payment = (20,000*0.0125*1.1608)/(1.1608-1)

Payment = 290.2/0.1608 =1,804.7

This can be implement using a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. Please find attached the Excel spreadsheet.

The INPUTS are the column whose heading is in green. The Variable is the column whose heading is in blue color.

PAYMENT is the last column in the Excel spreadsheet.
