All the Peanuts characters pool their money to buy an Old House. They take out a 15 year mortgage for 90000 dollars at a rate of interest of 6.3 percent convertible monthly, agreeing to make equal monthly payments with the first due one month later. Immediately after making the 20th payment, they decide to hire Bob Villa to remodel their house. To do this, they will need to refinance their loan and also borrow an additional 100,000 dollars. They make a deal with the lender where they will pay off the balance owed (on the original loan plus the additional 100,000 dollars) with 23 more years of equal monthly payments.
