The annualized interest rate for the loan is4.2%. What will be your remaining loan balance immediately following payment #28? Hint: you do not need to create an amortization schedule to answer this question. Do not round intermediate steps. Enter your answer as a positive number, and round to the nearest penny.arrow_forwardThe bank offers you a 20 year mortgage for $200,000 at an interest rate of 8% .
