Answer key: Balloon Payment worksheet
Calcapedia 1. Balloon payment due: $250,000.00
Count the regular monthly payments (k) before the balloon: 12 for every year
Each interest-only payment is one month of interest on the full loan, with nothing toward the loan itself
No principal is repaid along the way, so the balloon is the whole loan amount
Add up every regular payment and the balloon, then subtract what you borrowed. What's left is interest
2. Balloon payment due: $178,076.68
Count the regular monthly payments (k) before the balloon: 12 for every year
Count the payments (n) in the long schedule the payment is based on: 12 for every year
Find the monthly rate i: the yearly rate as a decimal, divided by 12, because interest is charged each month
Find the regular payment: the same amount each month that would pay off the loan over the long schedule
Work out how much $1 grows at this rate over the k months before the balloon
The balloon is what the loan P would grow to, minus what your payments would grow to over the same months
Add up every regular payment and the balloon, then subtract what you borrowed. What's left is interest
