Answer:

Explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Principal amount Joshua borrowed, P = $ 25000

rate of interest, r = 1.5 %

time, t = 2 years

simple interest =
(P*r*t)/(100)

simple interest =
(25000*1.5*2)/(100)=750

Means $ 750 will be the interest of Joshua's loan.

So, Joshua needs to repay the SBA =
25000+750=25750

Hence, Joshua will repay $ 25750 to SBA after two years. : Answer

Hope it will help :)
