Someone offers to buy your old Ford F-150 truck for 4 equal annual payments, beginning 2 years from today. If you think that the present value of your Ford Truck is only $9,000 and you assume the interest rate is 10%, which one of the below would be the minimum annual payment that youâ d be willing to accept? $2,839.24 $3,435.48 $3,123.16 $2,250

$3,123.16

Explanation:

The computation of the minimum annual payment is as follows:

Given that

RATE = 10%

NPER = 10%

PV = $9,000 × (1 + 0.1) = $9,900

FV = $0

The formula is shown below:

= PMT(RATE,NPER,-PV,FV,TYPE)

After applying the above formula, the monthly payment is $3,123.16
