What is the monthly payment if you borrow $600 at 7% a month rate?
For how many months?
Is the 7% annual, compounded monthly?
trying to figure how you do the math equation
You are aware that there are 12 month in a year aren't you?No its not annual its 7% per month for 12 months.
I have no idea what you are doing. You first have 600 divided by 7%, then 42 times 7%! Where did the 42 come from and why did dividing by 7% become multiplying by 7%? 7% of 600 is .07($600)= $42. That is the interest per year. Because there are 12 months in a year, you now divide by 12 to get monthly interest.I'm trying to figure how you do the math equation to come up with a monthly payment of $600.
This what I did but not sure if that is correct. 600/7% = 42 x 7%= 123.48 a month
