An entrepreneur borrows $500,000 today. The interest rate is 11.5%. If the entrepreneur makes annual payments of $70,000 per year, how many years will it take to repay the loan?

Respuesta :

Answer:

After 18.44 year loan will be paid

Explanation:

We have given an entrepreneur borrows $500,000 today.

So total amount is $500000

Annual payment is of $70000

Rate of interest r = 11.5 %

We have to find the time period

We know that total amount is given by

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n[/tex], here A is total amount , P is yearly paid amount, r is rate of interest and n is time period

So [tex]500000=70000\times (1+\frac{11.25}{100})^n[/tex]

[tex]7.142=1.1125^n[/tex]

Taking log both side

[tex]log7.142=nlog1.1125[/tex]

[tex]n\times 0.0463=0.8538[/tex]

n = 18.44 year

So after 18.44 year loan will be paid
