    How to calculate this hire-purchase interest?

    A shop is offering good on hire-purchase scheme. They offered following two schemes.

    Actual price: £ 499
    Payable in 37 instalments of £ 25.09 each (ie. total payable £ 928.33)
    Annual Percentage Rate of interest is 29.5%

    Another scheme

    Actual price: £ 399.99
    Payable in 48 instalments of £ 11.8 each (ie. total payable £ 566.40)
    Annual Percentage Rate of interest is 19.8%

    My question is, how do they calculate the interest and montly payment?

    Thanx

    Life is a one way journey, not a destination. Travel it with a smile and never regret anything.
    Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is gift - that's why we call it present.
