To offset the cost of buying a $75,000 house, a couple borrowed $12,500 from their parents at 6% nominal interest, compounded monthly. The loan from their parents is to be paid off in five years in equal monthly payments. The couple has saved $11,250. Their total down payment is therefore $12,500 + 11,250 = $23,750. The balance will be mortgaged at 9% nominal interest, compounded monthly for 30 years. Find the combined monthly payment (monthly payments to parents + monthly payments to bank against mortgage) that the couple will be making for the first five years.
