    Correct option is C.

    $141,722

    Explanation:

    Interest for First Year = $ 160000 x 15% = $ 24000

    Instalment amount = $ 42278

    Principal amount paid in instalment = $ 42278 - 24000 = $ 18,278

    Balance of Mortgage payable after first instalment

    = $ 160000 - $18278

    = $ 141,722
