1. **Costo inicial y pagos subsecuentes:**
El primer pago es de2000\,\text{soles}
P_n = 2000 \times (1 - 0.05)^{n-1}, \, \text{donde } n = 1, 2, \ldots, 12.
Calculamos los 11 pagos restantes:
P_2 = 2000 \times 0.95, \, P_3 = 2000 \times 0.95^2, \, \ldots, P_{12} = 2000 \times 0.95^{11}.
La suma total de los pagos es el valor presente de una serie geométrica de razónr = 0.95
T = \sum_{n=0}^{11} 2000 \times 0.95^n = 2000 \left(\frac{1 - (0.95)^{12}}{1 - 0.95}\right).
T \approx 19,416.08\,\text{soles}.
2. **Calcular el valor presente de los pagos:**
Utilizando el interés efectivo anual del 15% para calcular el interés mensual:
i = (1 + 0.15)^{1/12} - 1 \approx 0.011645.
El valor presente de los 12 pagos es:
V = \sum_{n=1}^{12} \frac{P_n}{(1+i)^n} \approx 13,832.16\,\text{soles}.
3. **Calcular el monto de intereses:**
Por lo tanto, el monto de interés es
I = T - V \approx 19,416.08 - 13,832.16 = 5,583.92\,\text{soles}.
La respuesta final es que el valor a pagar al contado es aproximadamente13,832.16\,\text{soles} 5,583.92\,\text{soles}
