$1225.56

Respuesta :

Answer:

The monthly payment, PMT = $450.71

Therefore the correct option is C.) $450.71

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Value of Loan, or Present value, PV = 24000

ii) Annual percentage rate , APR = 0.048

iii) number of periods, n = 12

iv) periodic interest, R = APR / n  = 0.048 / 12 = 0.004

v) number of years, t = 5

v) Monthly Payment, PMT =  [tex]\frac{PV\times R}{1 - (1 + R)^{(-1\times n \times t})} = \frac{24000 \times 0.004}{1 - ( 1 + 0.004)^{-60}}[/tex] = $450.71
