Car IJARAH Schedule:
Car value = 200,000 PKR
Down payment = 20,000
Time = 1 years = 12 months
I = 10%
Depreciation = 200000-20000/12 = 15000
Installment by my approach
Installment(Profit + investment) /n
Profit = i/12 { 2 (I) – (n-1)(d)}n/2
In this case it would be:
Profit =   .1/12{ 2 (200000) – (12-1)(15000)}12/2
Profit = 11750
Installment = (11750 + 200000)/12 = 17645

Customers' Response to Diminishing Musharkah
Customers are somehow satisfied with the Islamic Banking partnership mode of Diminishing Musharkahh because it is a sight of relief for them that it is HALAL and according to the shariah . and it is their first preferenceaccording to them because
It is Halal based on Shiriah Principles
Convenient
Diminishing Musharkah is not widely accepted by consumer base just because Home Finance is not an easy arrangement to avail. Its terms and conditions must be altered in order to make it more acceptable to customer base.
Contrary to this there were customers who do not even know about Islamic Banking's products. Now question arises that how Islamic Banking should aware all those who are unaware of Islamic Banking?
Suggestions:
Islamic Banking need governmental support in its marketing.
Need to improve image.
Islamic bank should tell customers that we are ISLAMIC 100%.
Proper legalisation by Government
Need to aware Customers
Islamic Banks must market their services on easy accessible media like T.V ads.
