Answer: $827
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Cash down payment = 5880
Payment at end of first year = 5880
Payment at end of second year = 5880
Interest rate = 5% = 0.05 compounded yearly
Let purchase amount = y
Amount left after cash down = amount on which interest is paid = y - 5880
Interest at end of first year :
(y - 5880) * 0.05 = 0.05y - 294
Amount to pay plus interest :
Amount left after cash down payment - amount paid at end of first year + interest
y - 5880 - 5880 + 0.05y - 294
y - 12054 + 0.05y
= 1.05y - 12054
2nd year interest :
(1.05y - 12054) * 0.05
= 0.0525y - 602.7
Amount left + interest = 2nd year payment
(1.05y - 12054) + (0.0525y - 602.7) = 5880
1.1025y - 12656.7 = 5880
1.1025y = 5880 + 12656.7
1.1025y = 18536.7
y = 18536.7 / 1.1025
y = 16813.33
Hence,
Sales price of washing machine = 16813.33
Total amount paid = (5880 + 5880 + 5880) = 17640
Interest paid = $(17640 - 16813.33) = $826.67
= $827
The total interest paid by him in this scheme, if the rate of interest is 5% compounded yearly is INR 826.67
Given:
Down payment = INR 5880
Payment at end of first year = INR 5880 (same as down payment)
Payment at end of second year = INR 5880 (same as down payment)
Interest rate = 5%
= 5/100
= 0.05 compounded yearly
Amount of purchase = x
Amount remaining after down payment
= x - 5880
Interest at end of first year :
(x - 5880) * 0.05(5,880)
= 0.05x - 294
Amount to pay plus interest = Amount remaining after down payment - amount paid at end of first year + interest
= x - 5880 - 5880 + 0.05x - 294
= x - 12,054 + 0.05x
= 1.05x - 12,054
2nd year interest :
(1.05x - 12054) * 0.05
= 0.0525x - 602.7
Amount left + interest = 2nd year payment
(1.05x - 12054) + (0.0525x - 602.7) = 5880
1.1025x - 12656.7 = 5880
1.1025x = 5880 + 12656.7
1.1025x = 18536.7
divide both sides by 1.1025
x = 18536.7 / 1.1025
x = 16,813.33
Therefore, The cost of washing machine b is INR 16,813.33
Total amount paid = (5880 + 5880 + 5880) = INR 17,640
Amount of Interest paid = (17640 - 16813.33)
= INR 826.67
