They are considering trading their car in for a newer used vehicle so that Harry can have dependable transportation for commuting to work. The couple still owes $4,770 to the credit union for their current car, or $265 per month for the remaining 18 months of the 48-month loan. The trade-in value of this car plus $1,000 that Harry earned from a freelance interior design job should allow the couple to pay off the auto loan and leave $1,400 for a down payment on the newer car. The Johnsons have agreed on a sales price for the newer car of $23,000. The money planned for tires will be spent for other incidental taxes and fees associated with the purchase. 1. Using the Garman/Forgue companion website or the information in Table 7-2, calculate the monthly payment for a loan period of three, four, five, and six years at 8 percent APR. Round your answers to the nearest cent. Round Monthly Installment Payment for a Loan in intermediate calculations to the nearest cent.

"To illustrate, assume an automobile loan of $14,000 at 8 percent for five years. To repay $1,000, the monthly payment
is $20.28; therefore, multiply $20.28 (8% row and 60-month column) by 14 to give a monthly payment of $283.92. For
amounts other than exact $1,000 increments, simply use decimals. For example, for a loan of $14,500, the multiplier would
be 14.5.
*For fractional interest rates of 5.5, 6.5, 7.5, and so on, simply take a monthly payment halfway between the whole-
number APR payments. For example, the payment for 48 months at 9.5 percent is $25.12 ($25.36 $24.88 = $0.48;
$0.48/2 = $0.24; $0.24 + $24.88 $25.12).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Feed8f33c-5e0d-47f3-bbf2-72eddaf64593%2F56c72d5e-45d2-4009-97d3-8222650a3b80%2Fp5qja6sw_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
