Answer 1

a) Loan amount = $80,000 @ 6.5% for 30 years

Step 1 = 80000 / 10000 = 8

Step 2 = for 6.5% and 30 years , loan payment = 63.21

Step 3 = 63.21 * 8 = $505.68

For $80,000 at 6.5% for 30 years, monthly payment will be $505.68

b)

Loan amount = $105,000 @ 5.5% for 20 years

Step 1 = 105000 / 10000 = 10.5

Step 2 = for 5.5% and 20 years , loan payment = 68.79

Step 3 = 68.79 * 10.5 = $722.30

For $105000 at 5.5% for 20 years , monthly payment will be $722.30

c)

Loan amount = $95,000 @ 5% for 15 years

Step 1 = 95000 / 10000 = 9.5

Step 2 = for 5% and 15 years , loan payment = $79.08

Step 3 = 9.5 * 79.08 = $751.26

For $95000 at 5% for 15 years , monthly payment will be $751.26
