Example 1: You're financing a new car purchase with a loan from an institution
that requires 15% interest compounded monthly over the 4-year term of the loan. If
you can make payments of $150 at the end of each month and your down
payment will be $1,500, what is the maximum price you can pay for the car ?
(Assume the purchase date is one month prior to the date of the first payment.)
