Given the monthly payments for each one of the two terms, we can calculate the total repayment of the 5-year and 10- years term.

As for the 5-year plan,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 5\cdot12=60\to\text{months in 5 years} \\ 60\cdot185.48=11128.8 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Similarly, for the 10-year plan,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 10\cdot12=120\to\text{months in 10 years} \\ 120\cdot102.63=12315.6 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Finally, the difference between these two quantities is

[tex]12315.6-11128.8=1186.8[/tex]

The answer is 'The 5-year term would be 1186.80 lower', option B
