If you check the actual meaning of loan proceeds, then u can understand the answer
Loan proceeds: The net amount of money that a lender disburses for a loan.
Example: A borrower agreed to a $100,000 mortgage loan. The lender charged 1% for origination and a 1% discount, providing $98,000 of loan proceeds.
Here 80% of collateral or loan amount = n or 1n
discount = .15n (15% of loan amount)
so actual amount given for loan or Loan proceeds = .85n (1n-.15n)
Actual repayement amount is = 1n or n only
There is no rate of interest here.
Taking example:
The deal here is that company gives loan of say $1000 but actually company will be giving you $850 and in return u will be repaying company $1000 ($150 is ur interest amount)
PS: Is this problem from IR prep tool? If yes then can you provide the feedback of it.

This analysis is NOT correct
ANY loan is given against collateral
so if the loan amount is N .then the interest that u owe to the lending party is 0.15 N
now "LOAN PROCEEDS" is the amount that u owe to the lending party BUT it is NOT the TOTAL amount that you owe to the lending party. the TOTAL AMT is the the summation of "LOAN PROCEEDS" + "INTEREST"
hence "REPAYMENT AMT" ="LOAN PROCEEDS" + "INTEREST"
SO "REPAYMENT AMT" = N - 0.15N +0.15N = N
IT would be wrong to say that there is "NO RATE OF INTEREST" here . the fact is that it getting cancelled because of some weird condition of "LOAN PROCEEDS", a situation which will never be in real life !!
PS : there can be NO LOAN without an interest in real life situation
