Answer:

Monthly installment is $724.72

Explanation:

Given:

Amount of loan (PV) = $45,000

Time period (nper) = 6 years or 6×12 = 72 months

Since amount need to be repaid in equal monthly installment

Annual interest = 5% or 0.05

Monthly interest (rate) = 0.05 ÷ 12 = 0.0041667

Monthly installment is $724.72

Pmt is negative as it is a cash outflow.
