After graduating the balance on Ricky’s Stafford loan is
$38,970. To pay off the loan at 3.37%, he will make 120
payments of approximately $382.99 each.
◦ Find the amount of interest and the amount applied to reduce
the principal in the first payment.
◦ If the interest rate were 5.4%, he would make 120 monthly
payments of approximately $421 each. How much more of the
first payment is interest if the loan is 5.4% rather than 3.7%?
◦ Compare the total amount of interest on the loan at 3.37% with
the amount on the loan at 5.4%. How much more would Ricky
pay on the 5.4% loan than on the 3.37% loan
