Step 1

Annuity - Annuity means the amount of series of payments based on fixed intervals periods.

The formula used to calculate annuity is = Amount*PAVF(R, N)

where PAVF = Present value annuity factor, R = Interest rate , N= no of periods

 

 

Step 2

In the given question we have, 

Amount borrowed = $9,100

Interest rate = 0.13% compounded monthly

N = no.of periods = 5*12 = 60 periods

Let the monthly payment be =x

x,PVAF(0.13%,60) = $9,100

X*PVAF(1+0.0013)60 = $9,100

X*61.4396868 = $9,100 how is this calculated?  I don't get this number.

X = $9,100/61.4396868 

X = $ 148.11

monthly payment = $148.11
