As a fixed-payment loan runs on, the interest portion inside each payment:

AHolds
BJumps
CFalls
DRises
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Falls
1. Interest is charged on the balance still outstanding. 2. That balance shrinks with every payment made. 3. So the interest portion falls while the principal portion grows. _Source: OpenStax Principles of Finance 2e, Chapter 8, Time Value of Money II._
