Ten years ago an organization took out a 350000 30-year


Ten years ago, an organization took out a $350,000 30-year mortgage with a 4.75% annual interest rate. Now, it is taking advantage of low interest rates to refinance the mortgage. The organization will pay $7,600 in up-front fees for a new 30-year mortgage with a 2.5% annual interest rate. The organization can earn an annual return of 2% on any money it saves.

a) The new mortgage will be $300,000—enough to pay off the old mortgage and buy some new furniture. Ignoring the up-front fees for now, how much will the organization save each month by refinancing? (Hint: Mortgage payments are monthly cash outflows.)

b) How many years will it take the organization to recover the up-front fees? (Hint: Treat the savings as a monthly cash inflow.)

c) How much money will the organization save in total (in today’s dollars) over the next 20 years?
