Respuesta :

Answer:

amount of total cash payment is $5450

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

amount = $15000

principal = $5000

rate = 3% = 0.03

to find out

the amount of total cash payment

solution

we know according to question is Each yearly installment will include both principal repayment of​ $5,000 and interest payment for the preceding​ one-year period

so first we calculate interest i.e.

interest = rate × amount

interest = 0.03 × 15000

interest = 450

so interest is $450 for 1 year

now we calculate the amount of total cash payment i.e.

interest + principal

so the amount of total cash payment = 450 +5000 = 5450

amount of total cash payment is $5450

Mandy will make total cash payment of [tex]\fbox{\begin{minispace}\\\$\text{ }5450\end{minispace}}[/tex] on March 1, 2019.

Further explanation:

Mandy issued a 3% long-term notes payable for [tex]\$\text{ }15000[/tex] over a 3-year term in [tex]\$\text{ }5000[/tex] principal installments on March 1 each year.

Then the interest payment for the first year will apply on total amount of [tex]\$\text{ }15000[/tex].

The formula for simple interest at principal value [tex]P[/tex] and rate percentage of [tex]R[/tex] in the time of [tex]T[/tex] years is,

[tex]\fbox{\begin{minispace}\\ \math{I}=\dfrac{P\times R\times T}{100}\\\end{minispace}}[/tex]

So, the interest amount payable at the end of one year is calculated as,

[tex]I=\dfrac{15000\times 3\times 1}{100}\\I=150\times 3\\I=450[/tex]

The total cash payment to be done by Mandy after a year on March 1, 2019, is the sum of the principal installment of [tex]\$\text{ }5000[/tex] and the interest applied on the total amount.

Hence the total cash payment is obtained as,

[tex]\fbox{\begin{minispace}\\\text{Total cash payment}=5000+450=5450\end{minispace}}[/tex]

Therefore, Mandy has to make a total payment of [tex]\fbox{\begin{minispace}\\\$\text{ }5450\end{minispace}}[/tex] on March 1, 2019.
