In order to build a new warehouse facility, the regional distributor for Valco Multi-position Valves borrowed $1.6 million at 10% per year interest. If the company repaid the loan in a lump sum amount after 2 years, what was (a) the amount of payment, and (b) the amount of interest?

Answer :

Answer:

(a) $1.936 million

(b) $336,000

Explanation:

(a) Assuming that the loan made by Valco Multi-position Valves was compounded yearly, the total lump sum of an initial investment of $1.6 million at 10% per year interest after two years is:

[tex]L=1.6*(1+0.10)^2\\L=\$1.936\ million[/tex]

(b) The amount of interest paid is given by the lump sum after two years minus the original value borrowed:

[tex]I=\$1.936\ million - \$1.6\ million\\I=\$336,000[/tex]

Tundexi

The amount of payment is $1.936 million and the amount of interest is $336,000.

a. The total lump sum of an initial investment of $1.6 million at 10% per year interest after two years is:

Amount = 1.6 * (1+0.10)^2

Amount = $1.936 million

b. The amount of interest paid is:

Interest = $1.936 million - $1.6 million

Interest = $336,000

In conclusion, the amount of payment is $1.936 million and the amount of interest is $336,000.
