"To illustrate, assume an automobile loan of $14,000 at 8 percent for five years. To repay $1,000, the monthly payment
is $20.28; therefore, multiply $20.28 (8% row and 60-month column) by 14 to give a monthly payment of $283.92. For
amounts other than exact $1,000 increments, simply use decimals. For example, for a loan of $14,500, the multiplier would
be 14.5.
*For fractional interest rates of 5.5, 6.5, 7.5, and so on, simply take a monthly payment halfway between the whole-
number APR payments. For example, the payment for 48 months at 9.5 percent is $25.12 ($25.36 $24.88 = $0.48;
$0.48/2 = $0.24; $0.24 + $24.88 $25.12).
