Answer 1

Answer:

the monthly payment is $910.18

Explanation:

The computation of the monthly payment is shown below:

Given that

PV = $180,000 - 20% of $180,000 = $144,000

NPER = 15 × 120 = 360

RATE = 6.5% ÷ 12 = 0.541666%

FV = $0

The formula is shown below:

=PMT(RATE;NPER;PV;FV:TYPE)

The present values comes in negative

After applying the above formula, the monthly payment is $910.18
