(1 point) A couple purchases a house and signs a mortgage
contract for $480000 to be paid with monthly payments over 30
years. The interest rate of the mortgage is j1 = 15% and can be
renegotiated every 5 years without penalty. At the end of the 5th
year they refinance the loan at j1 = 12%. Calculate the initial
monthly payment and the payment after the mortgage is refinanced.
Also determine the value of the savings for the 2nd 5-year period
with the new payment, and the outstanding balance of the mortgage
at the end of 10 years.
