The following table shows a portion of a five-year amortization schedule.

A 5-year amortization schedule.

Loan amount or principal: 10,900 dollars.

The interest rate on loan: 10. 95 percent.

The table will be

Month         Payment         Principal         Interest         Balance

  15               236.72            155.87            80.85           8704.27

  16               236.72            157.29            79.43           8546.98

  17               236.72            158.73            77.99            8388.25

  18               236.72            160.18            76.54            8228.07

  19               236.72            161.64            75.08            80.66.43

  20              236.72            163.11             73.61             7903.32

Total payment = 6 × 236.72 = $ 1420.32

Total interest = 80.85 + 79.43 + 77.99 + 76.56 + 75.08 + 73.61

Total interest = $ 463.38

Then the percentage will be

[tex]\rm Percentage = \dfrac{463.38}{1420.32}*100\\\\Percentage = 32.625 \approx 32.6\ \%[/tex]
