You take out a sub-prime mortgage for $280,885, maturing in 30 years, and charging 1% monthly. What is the monthly mortgage payment? (There are 360 monthly payments.)
The monthly payments are computed as follows:
Present value = Monthly payment x [ (1 – 1 / (1 + r)n) / r ]
$ 280,885 = Monthly payment x [ (1 - 1 / (1 + 0.01)360 ) / 0.01 ]
$ 280,885 = Monthly payment x 97.21833108
Monthly payment = $ 280,885 / 97.21833108
Monthly payment = $ 2,889.22 Approximately
