Answer:

a) 7.2%

b) 7.46%

Explanation:

the loan's principal = $3,200,000 x 80% = $2,560,000

first monthly payment = $17,300 x 360 payments = $6,228,000

total interests charged = $6,228,000 - $2,560,000 = $3,668,000

using a financial calculator:

n = 360

payment = -17,300

present value = 2,560,000

monthly APR = 0.6% x 12 months = 7.2%

effective annual rate = (1 + i/n)ⁿ - 1 = (1 + 0.072/30)³⁰ - 1 = 7.46%
