Answer:

The answer is c. $10,125.

Explanation:

interest rate = 9%

loan amount= 450000

time = 0.25years

Interest charge = 450000* 0.25 * 0.09 =$10,125.

The interest  charge will be $10,125 because the loan was taken in October and the financial year  ends in December, which makes it 3 months which is 0.25 years.
