Answer key: Loan Payment worksheet

  1. 1. Monthly payment: $456.22

    1. Count your monthly payments (n): 12 for each year of the loan

      n=5×12=60
    2. Turn the yearly rate into a monthly rate (i) by dividing by 12, because interest is charged every month

      i=0.0812=0.00666667
    3. Find the monthly payment. A standard formula gives the one amount that pays off the loan, with interest, in n months

      $22,500.00×0.006666671−(1+0.00666667)−60=$456.22
    4. Find the total interest: everything you pay over the loan, minus what you borrowed
