Suppose that you are considering a conventional, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage loan for $100,000. The lender quotes an APR of 2.78%, compounded monthly; mortgage payments would be monthly, beginning one month after the closing on your home purchase. What would be your monthly mortgage payment?
Information provided:
Mortgage= present value= $100,000
Time= 30 years*12= 360 months
Interest rate= 2.78%/12= 0.2317% per month
The monthly payment is calculated by entering the below in a financial calculator:
PV= -100,000
N= 360
I/Y= 0.2317
Press the CPT key and PMT to compute the monthly payment.
The value obtained is 409.8320.
Therefore, the monthly mortgage payment is $409.83.
