Joseph and three other friends bought a $280,000 house close to the university at the end of August last year. At that time, they put down a deposit of $10,000 and took out a mortgage for the balance. Their mortgage payments are due at the end of each month (September 30, last year, was the date of the first payment) and are based on the assumption that Joseph and his friends will take 25 years to pay off the debt. Annual nominal interest is 12 percent, compounded monthly. It is now February. Joseph and his friends have made all their fall-term payments and have just made the January 31 payment for this year.
