If you learn how to calculate the monthly payment — by financial calculator or Excel — the rest is pretty straight-forward. For Excel, use =PMT() formula and it will help you fill in the variables.

1. 1,067

2. 692,968. 1924.91 per month X 360 months

3. 429,725. (2,368.68 X 360) – 423,000

4. 37,285 Option 1 is 1,139.60 X 240 = 273,504 total payments; Option 2 is ,1,312.33 X 180 = 236,219. Since the principal payment is the same under both options, the difference is interest.
