    The second option,$ 352.95 is correct

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The total cost of the home is the list price of $89,000 plus the sales tax of 4.2%

    total cost=$89,000 + ($89,000*4.2%) = $92,738

    loan amount=total cost-down payment=92738

    -3000=$89738

    APR is 4.75% since they have an excellent credit score

    interest for first month=89738

    *4.75%/12=$ 355.21

    Principal payment in first month=total payment-interest=925.67 - 355.21 = $570.46

    principal left after first payment=$89,738

    -$570.46=$89,167.54

    second month interest payment = 89,167.54*4.75%/12=$ 352.95

    The correct option is $ 352.95 which is the second option
