2. Ben Brown bought a home for $225,000. He put down 20%. The mortgage is at 6

½ % for 30 years. Using the table in the handbook, his monthly payment is:

Loan Amount = Purchase price - Down Payment

Loan Amount = 225000 - 20%*225000

Loan Amount = $ 180000

monthly rate = 61/2 % * 1/12 = 0.54167%

NPER = 30*12 = 360

Monthly Payment = Loan Amount / PVIFA(rate,nper)

Monthly Payment = 180000/PVIFA(0.54167%,360)

Monthly Payment = 180000/157.9779

Monthly Payment = $1,139.40

Answer

D. $1,139.40

Loan Amount = Purchase price - Down Payment

Loan Amount = 160000 - 20%*160000

Loan Amount = $ 128000

monthly rate = 8.5%

NPER = 25

Yearly Payment = Loan Amount / PVIFA(rate,nper)

Yearly Payment = 128000/PVIFA(8.5%,25)

Yearly Payment = 128000/10.2342

Yearly Payment = $ 12507.33
