Antonio’s total lifetime cost will be $11680.99 after calculating all loans

Given that

Loan Amount ($)

5,894$

5,258$

Interest Rate (%)

6.9%

7.5%

Now for the loan amount 5,894$ at 6.9% interest, the amount will be

[tex]A=P(1+\dfrac{r}{h} )^{n\times t}[/tex]

[tex]A=5894(1+\dfrac{0.069}{12} )^{12\times 10}[/tex]

[tex]A=5894\times(1.00575)x^{120} =11727.76[/tex]

Now for the loan amount 5.258$ at 7.5% interest, the amount will be

[tex]A=5258(1+\dfrac{0.075}{12} )^{12\times 10}[/tex]

[tex]A=5258\times2.1120=111105.23[/tex]

So the total lifetime cost will be

[tex]=11727.76-5894+111105.23-5258=11680.99[/tex]

Thus Antonio’s total lifetime cost will be $11680.99 after calculating all loans
