A:
9514 1404 393Answer: Β  $240.93Step-by-step explanation:We don't have your "Days in a Year Table," so we will go by the definition of "ordinary interest." That term refers to a year of 12 months of 30 days each.Here, the term of the loan is 1 year plus two months, less 5 days. That is, the interest period in years is 1 +(2Γ—30 -5)/360 = 83/72 years.So, the interest on the loan was ... Β  I = Prt = $4400Γ—0.0475Γ—83/72 = $240.93
