Hint: $A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$ A = Cost of Boat P = Initial Amount R = Interest Rate N = Number of times Compounded per year T = No of years compounded

I'm sorry. I'm a tad bit lost. It's not compounded, I think?

No, I already did that. I'm into the section with deferred payments and installment loans.
