Explanation / Answer
2) we have An = R * ( 1 - ( 1+ i) ^-n) / i
n = 12 * 25 = 300
i = 0.05/12 = 0.0042
so for An = 180000
180000 = R * ( 1 - ( (1+ 0.0042) ^-300)) / 0.0042
R = monthly payment = $ 1056.46
After 6 years
number of payments left = n- k = (12*25) - (12*6) = 228
so to calculate unpaid balance
we use the expression
An-k = R * ( 1 - ( 1+ i) ^-(n - k) ) / i
A n-k = 1056.46 * ( 1 - ( 1+ 0.0042) ^-(228) ) / 0.0042
Unpaid balance = A n-k = $ 154800.724 is the answer
