Answer:

$204,709.68

Explanation:

The mortgage amount is 205,000.

The fixed interest rate of 7.75% per year

monthly payments is 1.468. 65

The amount payable after on the end of month one

Monthly interest = 7.75% / 12

=7.75/100/12

=0.0775/12

=0.0064

amount due after month one mortgage amount 205,000 + interest for month one

=(205,000) x 1 +0.0064

= 205 000x 1.0064583

=206, 323.95

Amount due after payment one

= 206,312- 1.468. 65

=204,855.35

The amount payable at the end of month two = amount after month one payment + interest

=204, 855.35 x 1.00645833

=206,178.373

Amount due after the second payment

=206,178.37-1468.65

=204,709.72
