Do NOT round any interrmediate numbers.
Do NOT turn this into a monthly problem.
Do NOT put in minus signs, answer all positive numbers.
Required:
1. What is the annual payment (round to

$
2. What are the
total interest payments (round to the
nearest $)?
$
3. After 16 payments have been
made, what percentage of the
total interest has been paid (round to
the nearest percentage point)?
%
4. After 16 payments have been made,
what percentage of the
total principal has been paid (round to
the nearest percentage point)?
%
Redo the problem if the interest rate is 2%
