Cost of Installment Buying Mary Wilson would like to buy a boat that cost $9,345. If she puts down $300 she can finance the balance for 60 months at 10.5% (monthly payment = $194.38). Calculate the amount financed, finance charge, and deferred payment price. Amount financed = Cash price - Down payment $9,045 = $9,345 - $300 Finance Charge = Total of all - Amount monthly payments financed $2,617.80 = $11,662.80 - $9,045 ($194.38 x 60) Deferred payment = Total of all + Down Price monthly payment payments $11,962.80 = $11,662.80 + $300
Calculating APR by Table Step 3. When you find the number of payments you are looking for, move to the right and look for the two numbers closest to the table lookup number. This will indicate the APR. Step 2. Go to APR Table 14.1. At the left side of the table are listed the number of payments that will be made. Step 1. Divide the finance charge by amount financed and multiply by $100 to get the table lookup factor.
Annual Percentage Rate (APR) Calculating APR rate by table Finance charge x $100 = Table 14.1 Amount financed lookup # Truth in Lending Act APR must be accurate to the nearest 1/4 of 1% $2,617.80 x 100 = $28.94 $9,045 Between 10.25% - 10.50%
Calculating the Monthly Payment by Formula The pickup truck advertisement on page 340 showed a $194.38 monthly payment. We can check this by formula and by table lookup. Finance charge + Amount financed Number of payments of loan $2,617.80 + $9,045 60 $194.38
Calculating the Monthly Payment by Table Step 3. Multiply the quotient in Step 1 by the factor in Step 2 9.045 x $21.49 = $194.38 Step 2. Look up the rate (10.5%) and the number of months (60). At the intersection is the table factor showing the monthly payment per $1,000 ($21.49) Step 1. Divide the loan amount by $1,000 $9,045 = 9.045 $1,000

Calculating Average Daily Balance Step 5. Finance charge = Rate per month x Average daily balance Step 4. Divide the sum of the cumulative daily balances by the number of days in the billing cycle.

Calculate the daily balance or amount owed at the end of each day during the billing cycle Daily = Previous + Cash + Purchases - Payments balance balance advances
