Here's how to find the maturity value of the loan:
- Calculate the total interest:
- Interest = Principal * Interest Rate * Time
- Interest = $32,000 * 0.12 * 6 years
- Interest = $19,200
- Add the interest to the principal to find the maturity value:
- Maturity Value = Principal + Interest
- Maturity Value = $32,000 + $19,200
- Maturity Value = $51,200
Therefore, the maturity value of the loan is $51,200.
Additional Notes:
- Make sure to use the correct interest rate format. In this case, the interest rate was given as a percentage, so we converted it to a decimal (0.12) by dividing by 100.
- Double-check your calculations to ensure accuracy.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
