    c) $18,986

    Explanation:

    The computation of the payment of principal is shown below:

    = Annual payment - (Balance of Principal * interest rate)

    = $48,986 - ($250,000 * 12%)

    = $48,986 - $30,000

    = $18,986

    We do not consider the time period. Hence, we ignored it as it is not relevant for the computation part.

    We simply multiply the principal balance with the interest rate and then deduct it from the annual payment.
