Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) With Mode of P/Y = 12 and C/Y = 12, I/Y = 8, PV = 250,000, PMT = -2,132.85, and FV = 0, we get n = 228.85 months or 19.07 years.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: B) With Mode of P/Y = 12 and C/Y = 12, N = 360, I/Y = 5, PV = 150,000, and FV = 0, we get 805.23 as the monthly payment.
