You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the chart shows that the monthly payment for a 15000 loan at 6.5% per year compounded monthly is 23.71 per thousand.
the loan is 15000.
15 * 23.71 = a monthly payment of 355.65 per month.
48 months * that = total payment of 17071.2.
subtract 15000 from that to get 2071.2.
selection D looks good.
