Objective The main objective of this project is to create an API to manage clients and the loan payments control system from a fin-tech.
Purpose The purpose of this challenge is to test your ability to implement a solution given an abstract problem. You may find a problem in the asked task that you need to explain the problem and propose a solution to fix it.
Problem A fin-tech needs to create and manage the clients and keep track of the amount of money loaned and the missed/made payments. It also needs a place to retrieve the volume of outstanding debt at some point in time.
Business Rules
- If a client contracted a loan in the past and paid all without missing any payment, you can decrease by 0.02% his tax rate;
- If a client contracted a loan in the past and paid all but missed until 3 monthly payments, you can increase by 0.04% his tax rate;
- If a client contracted a loan in the past and paid all but missed more than 3 monthly payments or didn’t pay all the loan, you need to deny the new one.
Limitations Loans are paid back in monthly instalments; Can’t pay above loan amount; Will not be able to receive a value above the total.

Summary Create a loan application. Loans are automatically accepted.

instalment: monthly loan payment.
Example of received data
{
“loan_id”: “000-0000-0000-0000”,
“instalment”: 85.60
}
Notes
Loan payment formula
r = rate / term
instalment = [r + r / ((1 + r) ^ term - 1)] x amount
Example
For repaying a loan of $1000 at 5% interest for 12 months, the equation would be:
instalment = [(0.05 / 12) + (0.05 / 12) / ((1 + (0.05 / 12)) ^ 12 - 1] x 1000
instalment = 85.60
Summary Create a record of a payment made or missed.
Restrictions
- It is not possible to pay a different amount from that established in the loan;
- When creating the Payment, the payment value must be validated with the made and missed strings;
- In the creation of the Payment the date sent must be validated with the date of the day;

- In the creation of the Payment must be validated only one per month.
