    Required monthly payments = $352.556

    Explanation:

    Loan Amortization: A loan repayment method structured such that a series of equal periodic installments will be paid for certain number of periods to offset both the loan principal amount and the accrued interest.

    The monthly installment is computed as follows:

    Monthly installment = Loan amount/annuity factor

    Loan amount; 10,800

    Annuity factor = (1 - (1+r) ^ (-n)) / r

    r - monthly rate of interest, n - number of months

    r - 10.8%/12 = 0.9 % = 0.009, n = 3 * 12 = 36

    Annuity factor = (1 - (1+0.009) ^ (-36)) / 0.009 = 30.6334

    Monthly installment = Loan amount / annuity factor

    = 10,800/30.6334 = 352.556

    Required monthly payments = $352.556
