Section 13.2: LOAN REPAYMENT METHODS

:::STATE EXAM CONTENT AREA: XII.H: MATH - FINANCE:::

** Amortized Mortgage

A
** Payments of interest and enough
principal to kill the full balance in
regular periodic payments
** Early payments consist mainly of
Interest

** PIP Sandwich
** Amortizing a mortgage by breaking
the monthly payments into payments
of interest and principal and arriving
at a new balance.
** Payments remain level, the interest
portion of each payment decreases,
while the principal portion of each
payment increases.

** I = P x R x T

  • Calculation -
    ** What is the monthly payment for a
    $100,000 loan at 8%, amortized for 30
    years with a loan constant of
    .0073376?
    ** a. the interest portion of the third month’s
    payment
    ** b. the principal portion of the third month’s
    payment
    ** c. the balance due after the third month’s
    payment

$ 100,000 Loan X .0073376 Loan Constant = $733.76

** SEE PAGES 238-239

** Another question is: what is the amount of
interest paid?
# Payments x Amount of Payments = Total
Principal and Interest
Total Principal and Interest – Principal = Total
Interest

** Calculate the total interest that will be paid if
the mortgage runs to maturity? (Remember
that payments consist of both interest and
principal.)

** You arrange a $30,000 mortgage for 30 years
at 8% interest. Payments are $220.13 per
month. Calculate the total interest for life of
the loan:

** $220.13 x 360 payments = $79,246.80 Total P & I
To calculate the interest paid, simply subtract the principal
from the Total P & I.
$79,246.80 - $30,000.00 = $49,246.80 Interest
