I found commercial property on sale for $43,000 we can use for our athletic clothes store Electrifying Elites. I will finance to show how much we will be paying per month. Financed Payment: $43,000 x .8 = $34,400 Monthly payment on 30-year mortgage with 5% interest: m p(r/1-(1+r)^-n 30 x 12 360 = n $34,400 x (.05/12)/(1- (1 + .05/12) ^ -360) = $184.67 Monthly payment on 15-year mortgage with 5% interest: 15 x 12 = 180 = n $34,400 x (.05/12)/ (1 - (1 + .05/12)^-180) = $272.03 As you can see, the 30 year mortgage monthly payments is $184.67, and the 15 year mortgage is $272.03. Both of these mortgage payments seem reasonable and can be possible to finance. We can finally have our own warehouse to keep track of inventory and we can sell products from here. The area has potential for growth in population as well which can bring in more business. Post 2: Reply to a Classmate You are helping make this important financial decision for the business.
