The bank has offered the following terms: term = one year, up-front fee = 60 basis points, back-end fee = 25 basis points, and rate on the loan = 6.25 percent.

Explanation / Answer

Upfront fee = .006 * 167500 = $1005

Interest = 6.25% of 163000 = $10187.5

Back end fee = .25% 0f *(167500 - 163000) = $11.25

So total interest and fees = $1005 + $10187.5 + $11.25 = $11203.75
