Step-1:Calculation of monthly payments | ||||||||||||
Monthly Payments | = | Loan amount/present value of annuity of 1 | ||||||||||
= | $ 2,50,000 | / | 130.7201 | |||||||||
= | $ 1,912.48 | |||||||||||
Working; | ||||||||||||
Present value of annuity of 1 | = | (1-(1+i)^-n)/i | Where, | |||||||||
= | (1-(1+0.00375)^-180)/0.00375 | i | 4.5%/12 | = | 0.00375 | |||||||
= | 130.7201 | n | 15*12 | = | 180 | |||||||
Step-2:Calculation of loan balance after 10 years | ||||||||||||
Loan balance | = | Monthly loan payments*Present value of annuity of 1 | ||||||||||
= | $ 1,912.48 | * | 53.63938 | |||||||||
= | $ 1,02,584 | |||||||||||
Working; | ||||||||||||
Present value of annuity of 1 | = | (1-(1+i)^-n)/i | Where, | |||||||||
= | (1-(1+0.00375)^-60)/0.00375 | i | 4.5%/12 | = | 0.00375 | |||||||
= | 53.63938 | n | 5*12 | = | 60 | |||||||
Loan balance is the present value of monthly payment. | ||||||||||||
So, loan balance after 10 years is | $ 1,02,584 | |||||||||||
