A local ski hill has just approached a venture capitalist for financing for its new business venture, the development of another local ski hill. On April 1, 2013, the venture capitalist loaned the company $100,000 at an interest rate of 13%. The loan is payable over four years in annual blended principal and interest instalments of $33,619, due each March 31. The first payment is due March 31, 2014. The ski hill's year end is March 31.
