A graduated payment mortgage (GPM) enables the borrower to have lower payments earlier in the mortgage and increased payments later on. The assumption is the borrower’s income will increase over time so that it will be easier for the borrower to meet all payments. Suppose you borrow $60,000 on a 30-year monthly mortgage. You obtain a GPM where monthly payments increase 7.5% per year through year 5 and then remain constant from year 5 through year 30. For annual interest rates of 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, and 14%, use Solver to find the amount of each year’s monthly payment.
