Expert Solution

a) No of payments remaining after 1 year=24*12= 288

Balance loan= PV of annuity= A*(1-1/(1+r)^n)/r

= 479.10*(1-1/(1+8.4%/12)^288)/(8.4%/12)

=479.10*123.6963074

=59262.90

b) Amount paid towards principal= Total loan-Loan balance

=60000-59262.90

=737.10

Total payments= Monthly payment*No of payments

= 479.10*12

=  5749.20

Interest paid= Total payments-Principal repaid

= 5749.20-737.10

= 5012.10
