There is one common property in all four methods, that all four methods have simple annual interest payment system.

Ans. 2.

Following formula is used to calculate the interest payment annually.

A = P (1+r)

Fir example, the interest for 1st year will be,

A = 100000(1+5%)

A = 100000(1 + 5÷100)

A = 100000(1+ 0.05)

A = 100000*1.05

A= 1050000

And so on.

Kindly go through the diagram attached to see the cash flow in each method.

Ans. 3

Method 1. Principle + RM 150,000 EXTRA

Method 2. Principle + RM 250,000 EXTRA

Method 3. Principle + RM 170,000 EXTRA
