    I can borrow $24,000

    Explanation:

    A fix Payment for a specified period of time is called annuity. The discounting of these payment on a specified rate is known as present value of annuity.

    The amount of loan can be calculated as follow

    PV of annuity = P x [ (1 - (1 + r) ^-n) / r ]

    Amount of Loan = $632 x [ (1 - (1 + 1%) ^-48) / 1% ]

    Amount of Loan = $632 x [ (1 - (1.01) ^-48) / 0.01 ]

    Amount of Loan = $24,000

    r = 7.17%

    Interest rate is 7.17%
