Pt = Po*r*t / (1-(1+r))^-t.
r = (5.75%/12) / 100% = 0.004791666667 =Monthly % rate expressed as a decimal.
t = 12 mo/yr * 20 yrs = 240 Months.
Pt=112247.47*0.00480*240/(1-(1.00480)^-240 = $189,137.05
Monthly(I+P) = Pt / t = 189137.05/240 =
$788.07 / mo.
Increase = 788.07 - 706.12 = $81.95.
NO, don't do it!
Five years ago, you bought a house for $151,000, with a down payment of $30, 000, which meant you took out a loan for $121,000. Your interest rate was 5.75% fixed. You would like to pay more on your loan. You check your bank statement and find the following information.
Escrow payment $211.13
Principle and Interest payment $706.12
Total Payment $917.25
Current Loan Balance $112,247.47
