Your Mortgage Payment Calculator application was very well received. The VP of IT has commended you on your work. When you inquire about the promised big raise he says About that. You see the company is redoing my office. There was a miscommunication with the vendor and the desk, bookcases, coffee table, and end tables were supposed to be made from Gabon Ebony. Instead they were made from Padauk. Because of this, the price has gone up, so there is not as much wiggle room in the budget anymore. But I will see what I can do. You keep up the good work!

You sulk back to your desk thinking that it might be time to update the old resume. Your phone is ringing off the hook. It is the Senior VP of IT calling to say that the mortgage analysts are again on the verge of revolt. (It's like dj vu all over again!) Since the system is still down, they cannot provide their customers with loan comparison information. They demand that IT creates a GUI program that shows a table of loan comparison information.

The Senior VP of IT has asked you to get something together yesterday. When you ask if there is a bonus or raise in it for you he says Youre the miracle worker. This is part of your job! DO IT!!!

A programmers work is never done.

Specifications

You will need to ask for a Loan Amount, and Number of Years. The user will input these via text fields.

There will be a Show Table button that when pressed will create a table with monthly and total payments for each interest rate starting from 5% to 8%, in increments of 0.125%. This will be displayed in a Grid Pane.

The GUI should look something like this:

The interest rate should always have 3 places after the decimal point. Monthly Payment and Total Payment should be formatted as Currency.

Hint: Look at the NumberFormat class or the format method in the String class.

Use a Border Pane for holding everything. Use the NORTH area for user interaction. Use the CENTER area for the table.

The code for the Loan Class is included at the end of this document.
