Respuesta :

Answer: A. 49,200

Explanation: Took test on Edge

Based on the fact that Terry had a bankruptcy, the additional interest she will pay over the life of the loan is a. $49,000

What is the current monthly amount Terry pays?

This can be found by the formula:

Loan amount = Amount paid x ( 1 - ( 1 + rate) ^-number of periods) / rate

Rate is:                                                             Number of periods

= 11% / 12 months                                              = 25 x 12

= 11/12%                                                             = 300 months

Amount is:

60,000 = Amount x ( 1 - ( 1 + 11/12%)⁻³⁰⁰) / 11/12%

60,000 = Amount x 102.029043745

Amount = 60,000 / 102.029043745

= $588.07

What is the additional interest Terry will pay?

= (Amount Terry pays now - Amount Terry would have paid) x 300 months

= (588.07 - 424.07) x 300

= $49,200
