So here’s my opinion that could totally be wrong. Let’s break this problem down step by step:
1012x30 = 30,360
1.1% = 1056x30 = 31,680
1% = 960x30= 28,800
545.08x360 =196,228.8
Total = 287,068.8
Answer C
(As a tip when they give a true cost of the house and then a mortgage amount it’s probably always better to go with the mortgage amount because that has the interest and other costs that you need factored into it.) Best of luck!
