6. Calculating finance charges using the discount method and APRon a single-payment loan You are taking out a single-payment loan that uses the discount method to compute the finance charges. Computing the finance charges is done the way they're computed using the simple interest method. Under the discount method, a borrower receives the principal the finance charges. For example, if the principal is $12,000 and the finance charges are $1,440, the borrower will receive $ The following equation computes the finance charges on your loan: Fd=Fs= Amount of Loan Interest Rate Term of Loan where Fd is the finance charge for the loan, and the term of the loan is in You're borrowing $10,000 for two years with a stated annual interest rate of 6%. Complete the following table. (Note: Round your answers to the nearest dollar.) Annual Percentage Rate (APR) You also want to calculate the APR (annual percentage rate) and compare it to the stated interest rate. You also want to calculate the APR (annual percentage rate) and compare it to the stated interest rate. First, compute the average annual finance charge by dividing the total finance charge by the life of the loan, which is two years (2.0 years). Enter this value in the following equation. (Note: Round your answers to the nearest dollar.) Next, as a single-payment loan, the average loan balance outstanding is constant at the Enter the value for the average loan balance outstanding in the following equation. Finally, complete the calculation for APR and enter it in the following equation. (Note: Round your answers to the nearest dollar and your percentage point to the nearest two decimal places.) APR = Average Annual Finance Charge / Average Loan Balance Outstanding ==/% The APR is the stated interest rate because the Formula to compute finance charges is the same for the discount and simple interest methods Term of the loan is more than six months Loan is a single-payment loan Discount method was used to calculate finance charges 6.
