Shelly Sanders gets a loan for $3,000 and repays the loan in 12 monthly payments of $258 per month. Under the APR formula, what is the amount of interest included in her first payment?

$8

Explanation:

Total loan is $3,000

Monthly instalments of $258

Tenor of 12 months

Total interest paid on loan = $258 x 12= $3,096

Interest = $3,096 - $3,000 = $96

Apr = $96/$3000= 0.032

= 0.032 x 100

= 3.2% annual rate

= 3000 x 3.2%

= 96/12 = $8

$8

Explanation:

Annual percentage rate (APR) is the annual rate charged for borrowing a loan.APR does not take into account compounding of interest.

Loan amount: $3,000

Repayment period : 12 months

Monthly repayment : $258

Total repayment value : $258*12=$3096

Interest Value : $3000-$3096 = $96

APR : 96/3000*100 = 3.2%

1st month interest = 3.2% * 3000/12 = $8
