Question:
An adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) ties monthly payments to a rate index (say, the US T-bill rate). Suppose you borrow $60,000 on an ARM for 30 years (360 monthly payments). The first 12 payments are governed by the current T-bill rate of 8 percent. In years 2–5, monthly payments are set at the year’s beginning monthly T-bill rate + 2 percent. Suppose the T-bill rates at the beginning of years 2–5 are as follows:
Year 2 .................... 10 percent
Year 3 .................... 13 percent
Year 4 .................... 15 percent
Year 5 .................... 10 percent
Determine the monthly payments during years 1–5 and each year’s ending balance.
