Answer

The monthly payments for this loan is equal to $3,234.94

Work Step by Step

1. Write the formula for loan payment: $PMT = PV\frac{i}{1 - (1 +i)^{-n}}$ 2. Identify the values: $PV = 250,000$ - Monthly payment: m = 12 - 9.5% : r= 0.095 - 10 years : t = 10 i$=r/m=\frac{0.095}{12}$ $n=mt=12 \times 10 = 120$ 3. Substitute the values and calcule the payment: $PMT = (250,000)\frac{\frac{0.095}{12}}{1 - (1 + \frac{0.095}{12})^{-120}} = 3,234.94$
