Answer:

Tony will pay interest of $16.5 as part of the first loan payment

Explanation:

Monthly loan payment includes the interest portion of the month and and principal payment for the month.

As per given data

Amount of Loan = $3,300

Interest rate = 6% annually = 0.5% monthly

Loan Payment per month = $146.26

First calculate the monthly interest on the due balance

Interest payment = Amount due x Interest rate

Interest payment = $3,300 x 0.5% = $16.5

Now calculate the principal payment after deducting the interest portion from the monthly payment.

Principal Payment = $146.26 - $16.5 = $129.76
