The formula to calculate a monthly payment for a mortgage is:
where is the principal amount of the loan, is the interest rate expressed as a decimal, is the number of months in a year, and is the number of years in the term of the loan.
You know everything but the principal amount, so solve for
You can do your own arithmetic.
The total amount paid to the mortgage company (presuming you keep the loan to term and you never refinance) is the payment amount times the number of payments that will be made during the term of the loan (number of payments per year times the number of years)
The interest paid is the total amount paid minus the original principal.
