    The answer is $26,900

    Explanation:

    The interest payment on $175,000 principal is:

    8% x $175,000

    $14,000

    At the end of each year, both principal and interest payment will be paid.

    The total payment for December 31, Year 1 is $40,900. Meaning this contains both the principal and interest payment.

    So in the light of the above, the principal out of this money will be:

    Total amount paid minus interest paid.

    $40,900 - $14,000

    =$26,900
