Let break this down in practical way:
Are you curious about how much you will initially pay? and how much you will pay for a simple purchase. To help you fully understand the Easybuy phone before you go there, let’s now do some few calculations here.
Let’s say you want to get a phone from an easybuy store nearby, and the cost of the phone is 100,000 naira and you are asked to pay 10% of the money. By simple calculation 10% of 100,000 will give us ten thousand naira [N10,000]. That means you will only need to pay N10,000 as deposit and have the phone.
How will the remaining N90,000 be paid now? You can select 3, 4, or 6 months when asked how many months you need to finish paying the money.
Assuming you select six months, that means the remaining 90,000 will be spread equally to six months: the calculation will be 90,000/6.
Therefore, you must pay N15,000 each month.
