ADJUSTED MONTHLY INCOME Computed by a loan officer by subtracting from the gross monthly income (pre tax income) any fixed monthly payments with more than 10 months remaining (i.e. car payment, student loan, etc.) 12
Example 1: Chris and Daryl Cahill want to purchase a home selling for $125,000. Their bank requires a 15% down payment and a payment of 1 point at the time of closing. a) What is the amount of the down payment required? b) What is the mortgage amount? c) What is the cost of one point to be paid for by the Chaill's? 13
Example 2: Suppose the Cahill's gross monthly income is $4200 and that they have 15 payments of $185 per month remaining on their car loan and 14 remaining payments of $35 per month on a loan used too purchase a new washer and dryer. The taxes on the house they want to purchase are $135 per month and the insurance is $38 per month. a) What is the maximum monthly payment that the Cahill's can afford according to the bank? This is determined by taking 28% of the adjusted monthly income b)the Cahill's want a 30 year fixed mortgage. If the bank is currently offering a 6.5% interest rate determine whether the Cahill's qualify for the mortgage. 14

Example 3: The Cahills obtained a house selling for $125,000. They made a 15% down payment and obtained a 30 year conventional mortgage for $106,250 at 6.5%. They also paid 1 point at closing. Their monthly mortgage payment of principal and interest is $671.50. a) Determine the total amount of principal, interest, down payment, and points that the Cahills will pay the bank for their house over 30 years. b) How much of the cost will be interest? c) How much of the first payment on the mortgage is applied to the principal? 16
Example 4: Tony and Keisha purchased a house for $1150,000 with a down payment of $23,100. They obtained a 30 year adjustable rate mortgage with the following terms: The interest rate is based on a 6 month Treasury bill. The interest rate is 3% above the interest rate of the 6 month bill. The interest rate is adjusted every 6 months on the date of adjustment. The interest rate will not change more than 1% when the rate is adjusted. The maximum interest rate for the duration of the loan is 12% There is no lower limit on the interest rate. The initial mortgage interest rate is 5.5% and the monthly payments are adjusted every 5 years. a) Determine the initial monthly payment. b) Determine the adjusted interest rate in 6 months if the interest rate on the Treasury bill at that time is 2% 17
