- You need a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage to buy a new home for $265,000. Your mortgage bank will lend you the money at an APR of 5.6 percent for this 360-month loan. However, you can afford monthly payments of only $1,050, so you offer to pay off any remaining loan balance at the end of the loan in the form of a single balloon payment. How large will this balloon payment have to be for you to keep your monthly payments at $1,050? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)arrow_forwardYou have a loan outstanding. It requires making three annual payments at the end of the next three years of $1000 each. Your bank has offered to restructure the loan so that instead of making the three payments as originally agreed, you will make only one final payment at the end of the loan in three years.
