Answer:

No, he is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the total payment of a loan after t years,

A=P(1+r)^t

Where,

P = present value of the loan,

r = rate per period ,

n = number of periods,

Given,

P = $165,000,

In loan 1 :

r = 3% = 0.03, t = 15 years,

So, the total payment of the loan is,

A_1 = 165000(1+0.03)^{15}=165000(1.03)^{15}\approx \$ 257,064.62

In loan 2 :

r = 4% = 0.04, t = 30 years,

So, the total payment of the loan is,

A_2 = 165000(1+0.04)^{30}=165000(1.04)^{30}\approx \$ 535,160.59

Since, A_1 < A_2

Hence, total amount repaid over the loan will be less for Loan 1.

That is, the friend is wrong.
