- [1 point] In cell B5, compute the amount financed using the values in cells B2 and B4.
- [4 pints] In cell B7, compute the interest rate based upon the credit rating in cell B1 and the table in cells F2:H5
- [3 points] In cell B8, compute the monthly payment based upon the terms listed in the cells above.
- [3 points] In cell B11, compute the total interest paid for this loan.
