You are trying to help a buyer decide whether to use a
fixed-rate mortgage or an adjustable-rate mortgage. You
want to compare the fixed-rate term to the best one-year
adjustable loan you have found. Using the figures given
above and assuming a maximum adjustment at each
period, at what point would the savings from the
adjustable-rate mortgage become exhausted?
Before performing this comparison, complete the

monthly payments for each adjustment period.
