Assume a variable - rate mortgage of 500,000 with j 12 = 4% , amortized over 25 years with monthly payment. The term is 5 years. Now 2 years into the term, the borrower is thinking of refinancing it. How much would be the refinancing costs? Figure out exact number with these variables
Suppose that you take out a 40-year $175000 mortgage with an APR of 6%. You make payments for 3 years and then you consider refinancing the original loan. The new loan would have a term of 15 years, have and APR of 5.7% and be in the amount of the unpaid balance on the original loan. The administrative cost of taking out the second loan would be $1700. What are the monthly payments on the original loan? What would the monthly payment of the second loan be? What would the total amount you would pay if you continued with the original 40-year loan without refinancing? What would the total amount would you pay with the refinancing?
Suppose you want a 35-year, fixed-rate mortgage loan in the amount of $144,400. If the lowest fixed annual interest rate you can find is 5.5%, find the monthly mortgage payment

If you hold the loan for the entire term, what is the annual effective cost of each mortgage? B. How about if you only hold the loan for 5 years?
Assume a variable rate mortgage of 500,000 with 124%, amortized over 25 years with monthly payment. The term is 5 years. Now 2 years into the term, the borrower is thinking of refinancing it. How much would be the refinancing costs? Figure out exact number with only using these variables
Suppose you are buying your first condo for $190,000, and you will make a $10,000 down payment. You have arranged to finance the remainder with a 30-year, monthly payment, amortized mortgage at 3.5% nominal interest rate, with the first payment due in one month. What will your monthly payments be? You are not required to show calculations. However to receive credit you must provide the inputs used (N, PMT, FV, I/Y, PV) to solve.

Which of the following statements regarding a 30-year monthly payment amortized mortgage with a nominal interest rate of 8% is CORRECT? Exactly 8% of the first monthly payment represents interest. The monthly payments will decline over time. A smaller proportion of the last monthly payment will be interest, and a larger proportion will be principal, than for the first monthly payment. The total dollar amount of principal being paid off each month gets smaller as the loan approaches maturity. The amount representing interest in the first payment would be higherif the nominal interest rate were 6% rather than 8%.
