1. Create an amortization schedule in an Excel spreadsheet for a fixed-rate, fully amortizing mortgage loan using the information below:

Cost of house: $475,000

Down payment: 20%

Mortgage term: 30 years

Nominal annual interest rate: 5.55%

Type of mortgage: Fixed rate, conventional Payments: Monthly

Discount points: 3

Ensure that there are columns for the month/payment number (i.e., 1, 2, 3....), beginning loan balance, payment amount, monthly interest amount, monthly principal amount, and ending loan principal balance for each month. In other words, there should be a separate line entry for each month over the life of the loan with all the requested information. Use the Excel TVM functions or mathematical formulas for all monthly cell entries, except for the month numbers.

2. In addition to creating the above amortization schedule spreadsheet, answer the following questions about the loan:

a. How much money is actually received by the borrower after the discount points have been assessed (ignore other closing costs)?

b. What is the effective interest cost of this loan considering the discount points?

c. What is the principal balance due at the end of the fifth year?

d. What is the effective interest cost at the end of the fifth year considering the

discount points?
