Explanation / Answer

1. Beginning amount = 100,000

interest = 3.25% of 100,000 = 3,250

repayment of principal = 10,179.62 - 3,250 = 6,926.62

balance = 100,000 - 6,926.62 = 93,070.38

2. Beginning amount = 93,070.38

interest = 3.5% of 93,070.38 = 3,257.46

repayment of principal = 10,179.62 - 3,257.46 = 6,922.16

balance = 93,070.38 - 6,922.16 = 86,148.22
