The loan officer at 2nd National Bank tells Lana she can afford a monthly payment of $1,900 on her new home loan. Assuming this is an interest-only loan, and the principal balance is $410,000, what interest rate is Lana getting?

Sagot :

Answer:

5.56%

Explanation:

Annual payment = Monthly payment * 12

Annual payment = $1,900 * 12

Annual payment =  $22,800

So, she can afford to pay $22,800 in a year

The interest rate is Lana getting = Annual payment / principal balance

= $22,800 / $410,000

= 0.0556

= 5.56%
