Mortgage Calc: Calculate Payment, Owed & Interest Breakdown

In summary, the conversation is about a person needing help with a review question for a missed class. The question involves a home priced at $1,000,000 with a $60,000 cash down payment and a mortgage with a closed 5-year term and 25-year amortization at an interest rate of 2.75%. The person also asks about the monthly payment with a 3.10% mortgage insurance premium, the remaining balance after 5 years, and the percentage of interest and principal in each payment. The person is directed to a website for examples and formulas to calculate mortgage payments.

Hi I need help with this review question for a class I missed.

A home you want to purchase is priced at $1,000,000. You have $60,000 available for a cash down payment. You borrow the remainder through a mortgage with a closed 5-year term and 25-year amortization at an interest rate of 2.75% compounded semi-annually.
1. What is the monthly payment with a 3.10% mortgage insurance premium?
2. How much will you owe at the end of 5-year term?
3. What percentage of the total 60 payments will be interest and what fraction will have gone towards paying down principal?
