You take out a 30-year $200,000 mortgage loan with an APR (monthly) of 4.5% and monthly payments. In 12 years you decide to sell your house and pay off the mortgage. What is the principal balance on the loan?
monthly payment formula= [P * r x (1+r)^n]/[((1+r)^n)-1]
P= Loan amount=$200,000
r= interest rate per month=4.5%/12=0.375%
n=total number of periods=(30*12)=360
monthly payment=200000*0.375%*((1+0.375%)^360)/(((1+0.375%)^360)-1)=(750*3.847698)/2.847698=$1013.4
