Answer:

The loan amount is = $125000

Rate is = 6%

Term of the loan = 5 years or 60 months

EMI is = $2416.60

Now I have solved this using reducing method ans excel sheet. Please find attached the sheet.

So we can see that after 1st payment, the principle is left to $ 123,208.40

The value decreases by : $125000-123208.40=1791.60$
