  • The annual amount each year for 30 years is $1,652.69.
  • The annual rate to amortize $20,268.61 for 30 years @ $1,652.69 a year comes to 7.2%. Over the 30 years we will pay a total of $49,580.
  • That's almost two and a half times the bond itself!
  • Paying the bond in full would save us $29,312 in interest.
does anyone know if all that interest is tax deductable?
