Okay, in this problem, we have a borrower who has a loan of 60 ,000 at 5 % compounded annually.
00:07
Now, he's scheduled to pay it off over nine years with annual payments, but this borrower pays off the loan after five years.
00:14
That means that it's not compounding for years, 6, 7, 8, and 9.
00:18
All right.
00:19
So, well, all we need to do is say, well, my interest is going to equal 60 ,000, 60 ,000 times one plus my rate, which is going to be 0 .0 .0 .0 .000.
00:30
0 .05 .05 over the number of times it's compounding, which is one, and then times the number of times it's raised to the number of times as compounding per year times the number of years.
00:42
So one times five.
00:44
So this actually turns out to be relatively simple.
00:46
This is going to be 60 ,000 times 1 .05 to the fifth power.
00:53
Now, i don't know what that is off the top of my head.
00:55
So i'm going to open up a scientific calculator and plug that in...
