Answer:

$66.80

Step-by-step explanation:

The monthly payment can be computed using the pmt formula in excel spreadsheet as shown below:

=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)

the rate is the interest rate of 3.5% divided by 12 months to show interest rate per month

nper is the number of months it would take to complete the payments which is 4 years multiplied by 12 months i.e 48 months

pv is the cost of the gadget at $2,988

fv is the sum of all month payments which is not unknown

=pmt(3.5%/12,48,-2988,0)=$66.80
