Your investment vehicle will earn 4% per year. What amount of money will be available to use on the down payment, at the end of 5 years?.

A down payment is an upfront, partial payment made when purchasing expensive goods or services like a home or car. Typically, it is paid in cash or an equivalent at the time the transaction is completed. The remaining payment must then be financed through a loan of some kind. In fractional reserve banking systems, a down payment is primarily used to ensure that the lending institution has enough capital to produce money for loans and to collect some of the remaining loan balance in the event that a borrower defaults. The formula used to determine the down payment is: a down payment is equal to a percentage of the buying price.
