Lucy is financing $370,000 to purchase a house. How much money will she save over the life of a 30-year, fixed-rate loan by buying 3 points with a rate of 6.175% instead of not buying points with a rate of 6.55%? $21,548.40 $14,364.84 $3,264.84 $32,648.40
@FriedRice
1) 3 points=3% x 370000 = 11,000 so PV=359000 Payment =PV(i/n)/[1 - [[1 /1+ i/n]]^t*n] P=359000(.06175/12)/[1-[[1/1+0.06175/1… 359000(.00515)/[1-[[.99488]^360]] 1848.85/[1-.15759] pmnt=2,194.72 you can do it for the 6.55% and this should work for most of the other questions
Like what do I do from here to find the answer???
I = PRT I = Interest P = Percent R = Rate T = Time
P means The amount
Ok
So can you help me solve it
sure
what will be the interest
6.175%?
that's the interest rate
ok we got this part I = P(6.175)(T)
ok now what is the amount?
$370,000 is the amount we got I = (370000)(6.175)(T)
and the time is 30 years so I = (370000)(6.175)(30) so what would the Interest be or I?
68542500
ok then devide what we got last time 2,194.72
so its closest to D that must be your answer
thank you so much can you help with a few more please??
