    Answer: 187500

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Interest = principal * rate*time/100

    Let interest be I

    Principal be P

    Rate be r

    Time be t

    So we have

    I=p*r*t/100

    P in the question is 150000

    T is 1year

    R is 25%

    Substitute for the values

    I=150000*1*25/100

    Interest = 37500

    To know the exact cost now

    Add the interest to the principal cost

    Exact value=interest + principal

    Exact value = 37500+150000

    Exact value=187500

    The cost of the house now is=187500
