Steps

Step 1 :Given the remaining principal of the loan is $21367.59 and the interest rate is 13.7%.

Step 2 :First, convert the interest rate from percentage to decimal by dividing it by 100. So, 13.7%=13.7100=0.137.

Step 3 :Next, calculate the interest due for the monthly installment payment on the loan by multiplying the remaining principal by the interest rate divided by 12. So, the interest due is 21367.59×0.13712=243.94665249999997.
