Please answer question 2.
1.You have just graduated from college. Youre married. You and your spouse have both landed pretty good jobs. You calculate that you can put away $2000 per month in an ordinary annuity that pays 4% compounded monthly. Thats good, because having moved to your new place of employment, you are broke. Even so, you want to buy a house. You figure you can get by with a $400,000 house will increase in price at a rate of 5% per year compounded monthlyso by the time you save up to the 20% down payment of $80,000, you still wont have saved up enough, because the down payment will be 20% of a bigger purchase price.
1A) FV = A * (1 + i)^t
= 400000 * (1 + .05/12)^(t*12)
1B) Down payment after 5 years = 400000 * (1 + .05/12)^(5*12) * 20% = 102,668.69
1C) FV = A * (1-(1+i)^-t)/i
= 2000 * (1-(1+.04/12)^-(t*12))/(.04/12)
1D) Value of annuity in 5 years= 2000 * (1-(1+.04/12)^-(5*12))/(.04/12) = 108598.14
1E) Time at which monthly annuity amount will equate to 20% down payment:
2000 * (1-(1+.04/12)^-(t*12))/(.04/12) = 102668.69
t = 3.96 years
2. Ok, you can afford the down payment, and after some delay (life happens) you make a deal to purchase a nice house for $500,000 with $100,000 down and the rest financed over 30 years at 3.75% compounded monthly. You plan to pay the closing costs of approximately 8,500 out of your spouses bonus (you make note of this in case you ever get divorced!) Anyway
A) What is the monthly payment if the loan is fully amortized over the 30-year period?
B) Create an amortization schedule that shows the effect of each of the 360 payments, including the amount of the payment going toward interest, the amount of the payment going towards principle, and the principle balance of the loan after the payment is made. Make sure to adjust your last payment account for the rounding effect.
