Sagot :

Calculating the value of d and the fixed monthly payments against a $200,000 mortgage that last for 25 years

  • The value of d = $1088.63
  • fixed monthly payments made = $372

Given that :

Present value ( PV ) $200,000

Period = 25 years

Total period ( n ) = 25 * 12 = 300

also PMT is done monthly

∴ monthly interest rate = ( 716.67 / 200,000 ) * 100 = 0.358% ( r )

i) Next step : Calculate the value of PMT

using the equation below

[tex]PMT = [\frac{PV}{\frac{1-(1+r)^{-n} }{r} } ][/tex]     where :  PV = $200,000, r = 0.358% , n = 300

input values into equation

d = PMT  = $1088.63

ii) Fixed monthly payments

=  d - 716.67

= 1088.63 - 716.67  = $372
