Answer:

Following are the responses to the given question:

Step-by-step explanation:

For the First loan payment period is value:


\to NPER((8\%)/(12),-250-PMT((8\%)/(12),12* 30,-175000),175000)=215\ months

For the second loan payment period is value:


\to 15* 12=180 \ months

that's why the loan will be paid off soon.
