Answer:

$50,048.55

Explanation:

Use the Time Value of Money Techniques to Find the Principle (PV), that is the amount to be borrowed under the conditions given.

Pmt =  - $1,500.00

N = 3 × 12 = 36

i = 5%

P/yr = 12

Fv = $0

Pv = ?

Using a Financial calculator to enter the amount as done above the Principle amount would be $50,048.55
