To purchase a used automobile, you borrow $10,000 from Loan Shark Enterprises. They tell you the interest rate is 1% per month for 35 months. They also charge you $200 for a credit investigation, so you leave with $9,800 in your pocket. The monthly payment they calculated for you is $385.71/month.
If you agree to these terms and sign their contract, what is the actual APR (annual percentage rate) that you are paying?

Answer:

The actual APR (annual percentage rate) that you are paying is 12.69%.

Explanation:

The actual annual percentage rate (APR) can be calculated using the Annual Percentage Rate (APR) formula as

follows:

APR = (((Fees + Interest accrued) / Principal / n) * Number of months in a year) * 100 ……………… (1)

Where;

APR = ?

Fees = Credit investigation charged = $200

Principal = Amount borrowed = $10,000

Total accrued amount = Principal * (1 + (Monthly interest rate * Number of months of loan tenure)) = $10,000 * (1 + (1% * 35)) = $13,500

Interest accrued = Total accrued amount - Principal = $13,500 - $10,000 =$3,500

n = Number of months of loan term = 35

Number of months in a year = 12

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

APR = (((200 + 3500) / 10000 / 35) * 12) * 100

APR = 12.69%

Therefore, the actual APR (annual percentage rate) that you are paying is 12.69%.

The sensitivity of a system for disciplining and possibly terminating employees is important, and it is critical that the system be seen as fair. Employees form conclusions about the system's fairness based on the system's outcomes and procedures and the way managers treat employees when carrying out those procedures. Three principles of justice are outcome fairness, procedural justice, and interactional justice.
Outcome fairness involves the ends of a discipline process or action, while procedural and interactional justice focus on the means to those ends. Not only is behavior ethical that is in accord with these principles, but research has also linked the last two categories of justice with employee satisfaction and productivity
