You borrow $20,000 to purchase a car and will repay the loan in uniform monthly payments for the
next 48 months. The first payment is due one month after the purchase of the car. If the interest rate
is 1% per month, determine the amount of your monthly car payment. Assuming you make each
payment as scheduled, how much total interest will you pay over the four-year period?
Compound interest is a very powerful way to save for your retirement. Saving a little and giving it time to grow is often more effective than saving a lot over a short period of time. To illustrate this,
suppose your goal is to save $1 million by the age of 70. What amount of money will be saved by socking away $3,038 per year starting at age 23 with a 7% annual interest rate. Will you achieve
your goal using the long-term savings plan? What amount of money will be saved by socking away $20,406 per year starting at age 48 at the same interest rate? Will you achieve your goal using
the short-term savings plan?
