A local finance company quotes an interest rate of 17.1 percent on one-year loans. So, if you borrow $20,000, the interest for the year will be $3,420. Because you must repay a total of $23,420 in one year, the finance company requires you to pay $23,420/12, or $1,951.67, per month over the next 12 months.
