Answer:

John House

The annual payment is:

= $21,796.14.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Mortgage on his house = $250,000

Interest rate per year = 6%

Payment period = 20 years

Repayment method = equal payment annually

N (# of periods) 20

I/Y (Interest per year) 6

PV (Present Value) 250000

FV (Future Value) 0

Results

PMT = $21,796.14

Sum of all periodic payments = $435,922.78

Total Interest = $185,922.78
