Answer: $1942.98

Explanation:

GIVEN THE FOLLOWING ;

20years mortgage at 5%=$229,000

Annual property tax = $1,550

Annual property insurance = $630

Monthly association fee = $250

Total Monthly Housing payment can be calculated by

Equated Monthly Installment(EMI) on mortgage at 5% :

[PV ÷ (1-(1-rate)^-n)÷n]

Period(n) = 12×20 = 240

PV = $229,000

Rate(r) = 0.05 / 12 = 0.0041667

EMI = $1,511.31

Monthly property tax =$1550/12 = $129.16

Monthly property insurance = $630/12 = $52.5

Monthly association fee = $250

Total Monthly payment = $(1511.31 + 129.17 + 52.5 + 250) = $479.38

The Covington's Monthly payment is $1942.98
