Calculate the payment amount for the loan in cell C15. Reference the cells containing the appropriate loan information as the arguments for the function you use. Cells C20-C67 in the "Payment" column ... are populated with the payment amount from cell C15. [34 Points] Correct Answer =PMT(C13/12,C12,C11) Calculate, in cell D20, the interest amount for period 1 by multiplying the balance in period 0 (cell F19) by the loan interest rate (cell C13) divided by 12. Dividing the interest rate by 12 results in the monthly interest rate. This formula is reusable. The interest for a given period is always the monthly interest rate times the balance from the previous period. Correct Answer =F19*$C$13/12 Calculate, in cell E20, the principal amount for period 1. The principal amount is the difference between the payment amount (cell C20) and the interest amount (cell D20) for period 1. Construct your formula in such a way that it can be reused to complete the "principal" column of the amortization table. Correct Answer =C20-D20 Calculate, in cell F20, the balance for period 1. The balance is the difference between the balance for period 0 (cell F19) and the principal amount for period 1 (cell E20). This formula is reusable. The balance is always calculated as the difference between the balance from the previous period and the principal amount for the current period. Correct Answer =F19-E20 Calculate, in cell G12, the total amount paid by multiplying the payment amount (cell C15) by the term of the loan (cell C12). Correct Answer =C15*C12 Calculate the total interest paid in cell G13. The total interest paid is the sum of all interest paid in the "Interest" column of the amortization table. Correct Answer =SUM(D20:D67) Check to see if the total interest calculation in the amortization table is correct. The total interest paid is also equal to the difference between the total amount paid over the course of the loan and the original loan amount. Insert a formula into cell G14 to calculate the difference between the total amount paid and the original loan amount. Notice the negative sign associated with the original loan amount. This value should equal the total interest calculated using the amortization table. Correct Answer =G12-ABS(C11) Assume you have made the first 36 payments on your loan. You want to trade the car in for a new car. You believe that you can sell your car for $4000. Will this cover the balance remaining on the car in period 36? Answer either "Yes" or "No" in cell G15 from the drop-down menu. Correct Answer No [Show More]
