Plz explain. I will rate.
4. Using the Single Payment Compound Interest Equation, show that the Constant Principal Payment plan is equivalent to the $1000 borrowed. Interest is 6%, 10 years.Solution
Interest rate = 6%
Time = 10 years
Future value or the Principle value = $1000
Now for single payment compound interest
Present Value = Future Value / (1+rate)^time
This means that, for our example,
Present Value = 1000 / (1.06)^10
Present Value = $558.39
This means that if you take a loan with Principal value of $1000 @ 6% for 10 years, you will recieve $ 558.29 today for that.
In other words, if you take $558.29 for 10 years @ 6%, you have to pay at maturity $1000
Moulding the above formula
Future Value = Present Value * (1+rate)^time
Future value = 558.29 * (1.06)^10
Future Value = $1000
I hope it will clear your doubt.
