debt to be financed = 14000+7200-1200 = 20000
i = .12/2 = .06
n = 10
payment = P
20000= P(1 - 1.06^-10)/.06
P = 2717.36
After 30 months or 5 interest periods of 6 months
amount of her payment
= 2717.36(1.06^5 - 1)/.06 = 15318.01
Value of the original 20000 at that time spot
= 20000(1.06)^5 = 26764.51
So the balance she had to pay off
= 26764.51 - 15318.01 = 11446.50
