Answer #1

Loan amount = 100,000. Interest rate = 5.4%/12 = 0.45% per month. Time = 30*12 = 360 payments

A) Monthly payment = 100,000(A/P, 0.45%, 360) = 100,000*0.0056153 = $561.53

B) Interest payment in first monthly payment is 0.45%*100000 = 450 so (561.53 - 450) = 111.53 of the first monthly payment will go towards paying down the loan

C) Total interest paid = 561.53*360 - 100000 = $102,150.80
