George recently received a great stock tip from his friend, Mason. George didn’t have any cash on hand to invest, so he decided to take out a $30,000 loan to facilitate the stock acquisition. The loan terms are 8 percent interest with interest-only payments due each year for five years. At the end of the five-year period the entire loan principal is due.
