3. Example : Find Interest rate (i)
(Previous example)

4. Example : Find Loan term (n)





1. Find Loan term n = ?
for Monthly payment A = 126.63, Loan amount P = 12000, Interest rate i = 5,


Solution:
`P=12000` (Loan amount)

`i=5%=0.05` per year (Interest rate)

Monthly Amount `A=126.63` per month

`"Monthly rate" = "Annual rate"/12`

`"Monthly rate" = 0.05/12`

`"Monthly rate" = 0.004167`

`A=(P*i)/(1-(1+i)^-n)`

`:.1-(1+i)^-n=(P*i)/A`

`:.1-(1+0.004167)^-n=(12000*0.004167)/126.63`

`:.1-(1.0042)^-n=0.3949`

`:.(1.0042)^-n=1-0.3949`

`:.(1.0042)^-n=0.6051`

taking natural log on both the sides
`:.ln(1.0042)^-n=ln(0.6051)`

`:.-n*ln(1.0042)=ln(0.6051)`

`:.-n=ln(0.6051)/ln(1.0042)`

`:.-n=(-0.5023)/(0.0042)`

`:.-n=-120.7984`

`:.n=120.7984`

`:.n=121`

2. Find Loan term n = ?
for Monthly payment A = 2379, Loan amount P = 100000, Interest rate i = 15,


Solution:
`P=100000` (Loan amount)

`i=15%=0.15` per year (Interest rate)

Monthly Amount `A=2379` per month

`"Monthly rate" = "Annual rate"/12`

`"Monthly rate" = 0.15/12`

`"Monthly rate" = 0.0125`

`A=(P*i)/(1-(1+i)^-n)`

`:.1-(1+i)^-n=(P*i)/A`

`:.1-(1+0.0125)^-n=(100000*0.0125)/2379`

`:.1-(1.0125)^-n=0.5254`

`:.(1.0125)^-n=1-0.5254`

`:.(1.0125)^-n=0.4746`

taking natural log on both the sides
`:.ln(1.0125)^-n=ln(0.4746)`

`:.-n*ln(1.0125)=ln(0.4746)`

`:.-n=ln(0.4746)/ln(1.0125)`

`:.-n=(-0.7453)/(0.0124)`

`:.-n=-59.9997`

`:.n=59.9997`

`:.n=60`

3. Find Loan term n = ?
for Monthly payment A = 507.25, Loan amount P = 20000, Interest rate i = 10,


Solution:
`P=20000` (Loan amount)

`i=10%=0.1` per year (Interest rate)

Monthly Amount `A=507.25` per month

`"Monthly rate" = "Annual rate"/12`

`"Monthly rate" = 0.1/12`

`"Monthly rate" = 0.008333`

`A=(P*i)/(1-(1+i)^-n)`

`:.1-(1+i)^-n=(P*i)/A`

`:.1-(1+0.008333)^-n=(20000*0.008333)/507.25`

`:.1-(1.0083)^-n=0.3286`

`:.(1.0083)^-n=1-0.3286`

`:.(1.0083)^-n=0.6714`

taking natural log on both the sides
`:.ln(1.0083)^-n=ln(0.6714)`

`:.-n*ln(1.0083)=ln(0.6714)`

`:.-n=ln(0.6714)/ln(1.0083)`

`:.-n=(-0.3983)/(0.0083)`

`:.-n=-48.0002`

`:.n=48.0002`

`:.n=49`

Create Amortization Schedule

Month = 1
`20000*0.008333=166.6667`

`507.25-166.6667=340.5833`

`20000-340.5833=19659.4167`


Month = 2
`19659.4167*0.008333=163.8285`

`507.25-163.8285=343.4215`

`19659.4167-343.4215=19315.9952`
