A 30-year mortgage has monthly payments of $1,610. The loan balance is $280,000. How much is the interest portion of the first payment at a 6% annual interest rate?
A$1,400✓ Correct
B$1,200
C$1,610
D$1,500
Explanation
Monthly interest = $280,000 × (6% ÷ 12) = $280,000 × 0.005 = $1,400. The remaining $210 ($1,610 - $1,400) goes to principal reduction.
