A finance charge is a cost of borrowing money, including interest and other fees. It can be a percentage of the amount borrowed or a flat fee charged by the company.

The table shows the finance charge depending on the parameters. For a 60-month fixed installment loan with an APR of 4.5%, the finance charge per $100 is shown on the table as shown:

Therefore, the charge on $3900 will be:

[tex]\Rightarrow\frac{3900}{100}\times11.86=462.54[/tex]

The finance charge is $462.54

QUESTION B

The total payment is simply the sum of the finance charge and the loan amount.

Therefore, the total amount will be:

[tex]\Rightarrow3900+462.54=4362.54[/tex]

The monthly payment will simply be the total amount shared over the time period (60 months). Therefore, it is calculated to be:

[tex]\Rightarrow\frac{4362.54}{60}=72.71[/tex]

The monthly payment is $72.71
