In general, a mortgage loan is repaid monthly over the term of loan using the process of amortization, in which each payment contains two components: the interest that is owed on the debt outstanding and the portion of the principal that is being repaid. An amortization table or schedule details the monthly payments, the portions that will be used to pay the accrued interest and the repayment of the principal, and the debt remaining after each payment is made over the life of the loan. You will start by constructing an amortization schedule. Your dream is finally coming true! You've saved and saved and are about to become a homeowner After a conversation with your banker, you've agreed to a 20% down payment on your $182,188 home. To keep this problem and your calculations relatively brief, assume that the bank has offered you a mortgage loan for $145,750 that carries a 6% interest rate, semiannual payments of $26,905, and a 3-year term. Remember, the process is the same when you are preparing for either 6 semiannual payments of nearly $27,000 or 360 monthly payments of $873.85 for a 30-year conventional mortgage. Complete the following loan amortization table by entering the correct answers. Notes: 1. As all values are denominated in U.S. dollars, you do not have to enter any dollar signs 2. Round all interest payments down to the nearest whole dollar. 3. Rounding creates a situation in which the numbers in the loan's final payment are often unequal. Notice in this problem, the ending balance for payment 6 is $2. Therefore, your final payment would actually be reduced by $2 to $26,903. In the real world, to prevent over paying, you should call the tender to learn the actual amount due.
