Answer:
1.
Annual percentage rate = 6%
Monthly interest rate = 6%/12 = 0.5% = 0.005
Balance of loan after 50th payment = 4514.81
Interest portion in 51st payment = 4514.81*0.005 = $22.574
Principal portion in 51st payment = $463.99 - $22.574 = $441.42
2.
Interest paid in 1st payment = $24,000 * 0.005 = $120
Principal paid in 1st payment = $463.99 - $120 = $343.99
