Johnson's will pay by the end of the 20-year loan $326,807.25
Johnson's will pay by the end of the 30-year loan $512,109.68
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for compound interest, including principal sum is
[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex] , where:
The Johnson's are buying their first home. They are contemplating
two similar loans
The first is a 30-year loan for $150,000 at an interest rate of 4.1% APT
compounded monthly
∴ P = $150,000
∴ r = 4.1% = (4.1/100) = 0.041
∴ n = 12 ⇒ compounded monthly
∴ t = 30
- Substitute all of these values in the formula above
∴ [tex]A=150,000(1+\frac{0.041}{12})^{(12)(30)}[/tex]
∴ A = $512,109.68
Johnson's will pay by the end of the 30-year loan $512,109.68
The second is a 20-year loan for a $150,000 at an interest rate of 3.9%
APR compounded monthly
∴ P = $150,000
∴ r = 3.9% = (3.9/100) = 0.039
∴ n = 12 ⇒ compounded monthly
∴ t = 20
- Substitute all of these values in the formula above
∴ [tex]A=150,000(1+\frac{0.039}{12})^{(12)(20)}[/tex]
∴ A = $326,807.25
Johnson's will pay by the end of the 20-year loan $326,807.25
