Respuesta :

The amount of the payment for Year 1 that is interest expense is $4,500.

The interest paid on loan is a function of the interest rate and the amount borrowed. In order to determine the interest paid, the interest rate would be multiplied by the amount borrowed.

Interest = interest rate x amount borrowed

  • interest rate = 9%
  • amount borrowed = $50,000

9% x $50,000

0.09 x $50,000 = $4,500
