Explanation / Answer
a.
Monthly Payment formula:
P = r (PV) / [ 1- (1+r) -n]
P = Monthly Payment
PV = Present Value = 180000
r = rate per month = 10/12 = 0.833%
n = number of months = 360 months
Putting Values in the above formula
P = $1579.1
Thus, Monthly payment is $1579.1
b. Total Interest = [1579.1 x 360] - 180000
= $388476
