    Annual rate of return on this car loan is 9.38%.

    Explanation:

    Annual rate of return is the compounding average rate for any fund or loan amount for one year time. It includes the compounding effect of the interest payment.

    Price of the car = $25,000

    Down payment = $3,000

    PV of payment financed by dealer = $22,000

    Monthly Payment = 547.47

    Total Duration = 48 months

    $22,000 = $547.47 (P/A, i, 48)

    i = 0.75% monthly

    r = (0.75%) (12) = 9% yearly

    ia = [ (1 + 0.0075) ^12 ] - 1

    Annual Interest rate = 9.38%per year
