### Loan Repayment Calculation

**Given Data:**

- **Amount (P):** $160,000
- **Annual Interest Rate (r):** 8%
- **Time (T):** 15 years 

We need to find the monthly payment \( R \) necessary to pay off the loan by completing parts a through c. Represent the number of monthly payments by \( n \).

#### Calculation Steps:

1. **Step 1: Calculate Part A**

   Calculate \( P \left(1 + \frac{r}{12}\right)^n \) and call this number **A**.

   \[
   A = \underbrace{\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_}_{\text{Insert calculation here}} \quad \text{(Round to two decimal places as needed.)}
   \]

2. **Step 2: Calculate Part B**

   Calculate \( \frac{\left(1 + \frac{r}{12}\right)^n - 1}{\frac{r}{12}} \) and call this number **B**.

   \[
   B = \underbrace{\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_}_{\text{Insert calculation here}} \quad \text{(Round to two decimal places as needed.)}
   \]

3. **Step 3: Calculate the Monthly Payment \( R \)**

   Let \( R = \frac{A}{B} \).

   The monthly payment necessary to pay off the loan is \( R = \$\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \).

---

### Note:
- Ensure all calculations are rounded to two decimal places as necessary.
- Final monthly payment \( R \) should be rounded up to the nearest cent for accuracy.

This exercise assists in understanding the mathematical underpinnings of loan repayments, useful for academic purposes and practical financial literacy.
