Tim Smith has a $90,000 loan. His monthly payment is given in the table above. He paid $1,500 in fees and $6,271.04 in total interest the first year of the loan. If the APR is finance charge (interest plus fees) for one year ÷ amount financed, what was the APR for that year? In %

OpenStudy (amistre64):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (amistre64):

k thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is the amount financed the interest fees for one year is 6,271

OpenStudy (amistre64):

$1,500 + $6,271.04 is interest plus fees

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

(interest + fees) / amount financed = (6271.04 + 1500) / 90,000 = ? Then turn that answer into a percent
