Two debts, the first of
The size of the replacement payment is
Rounding to the nearest cent, the final answer is
Step 1 :Given two debts, the first of
Step 2 :We need to determine the size of the replacement payment if interest is 8.2% compounded quarterly and the focal date is one year from now.
Step 3 :The first debt is simple, it's just the principal amount since it's already due. So, the future value of the first debt is
Step 4 :The second debt involves calculating the future value of a loan with compound interest. The formula for future value is
Step 5 :Substituting the given values into the formula, we get
Step 6 :The future value of the second debt is therefore
Step 7 :The total future value of the two debts is the sum of the future values of the individual debts, which is
Step 8 :However, we need to calculate the future value of this total debt one year from now with an interest rate of 8.2% compounded quarterly.
Step 9 :Using the future value formula again, we get
Step 10 :The size of the replacement payment is therefore
Step 11 :Rounding to the nearest cent, the final answer is
