Answer 1

You have asked three unrelated questions in the same post:  37,38 and (most needed) 40.

Since you have dire necessity for Q - 40, I have addressed the same here. Please post the balance question one by one separately.

Q - 40

Please see the table below. It's a normal loan amortization schedule. Payment P starts with 400 and grows at 4%. Interest = Outstanding at the end of prior period x 10%

End of Year	Payment	Interest	Repayment	Outstanding
	P	I = L x 10%	R = P - I	Prev - R
0				2,000.00
1	400.00	200.00	200.00	1,800.00
2	416.00	180.00	236.00	1,564.00
3	416.00	156.40	259.60	1,304.40

Part (a)

Outstanding loan balance at the end of year 3 = $ 1,304.40

Part (b)

Principal repaid in the third payment = $ 259.60
