1 Interest rate per annum 5.77%
2 Number of years                                                                                                          30
3 Number of compoundings per per annum                                                                                                          12
1÷3 Interest rate per period ( r) 0.48%
2×3 Number of periods (n) 360
Loan amount (P) $                                                                                            245,000
Monthly payment $                                            1,432.87
(245000×0.48%×(1+0.48%)^360)÷((1+0.48%)^360-1)
