Lesson 4 4. calculate present value and future value for interest accruing loans; 5. define different types of annuities: simple annuity due, general annuity due, ordinary simple annuity, and ordinary general annuity; 6. calculate the elements of the future value and present value of an annuity: payment, amortization, interest rate, present value, and future value; 7. define and calculate mortgage constants; 8. calculate outstanding balances for a typical partially amortized mortgage; 9. calculate and discuss the principal and interest components of payments for a typical partially amortized mortgage; 10. calculate final payments for fully amortized mortgage loans; and 11. calculate and analyze the net present value, profitability index, and internal rate of return for an investment. Instructor's Comments For most people, real estate represents the single most significant investment they will ever make. Because of the significance of the scale of the investment and the complexity of the process, many will seek expert advice. Since it is essential that students are comfortable with the mechanics of real estate finance calculations, this lesson provides a review of key financial concepts: interest rate conversions, interest accruing loans, payment calculations, outstanding balance calculations, principal and interest splits, and final payments. In addition, the lesson reviews the basics of investment analysis, including net present value, profitability index, and internal rate of return calculations. Illustrations are used in the chapter to reinforce the important calculations. Mathematical steps are provided in the book chapter and students are encouraged to attempt to solve these illustrations on their own. To assist in solving these problems, we have provided detailed calculator steps for the HP10BII+ calculator at the back of the Course Workbook. We recognize that students may use a variety of business calculators to solve these problems. However, for consistency, the workbook solutions will use the HP10BII+ calculator. You are welcome to use any business calculator that you like, as long as it is not programmable; however, you will have to determine the calculator steps on your own. We use the HP10BII+ calculator in this course because it does all the necessary steps, is fairly inexpensive, and is not programmable. 4.2
Mortgage Math Review To emphasize the real-world nature of many of these calculations, we have provided spreadsheet applications for many of these, in Microsoft Excel format. You can find the Excel spreadsheet under "Online Readings" on the Course Resources webpage. After finishing this lesson, students have all the foundations necessary to advance to more comprehensive financial analysis. The remainder of this course examines practical applications of mortgage finance, including some highly technical, complex, and highly specialized techniques. It is expected that most students will have had prior experience with mathematical techniques related to mortgages through pre-requisite courses. This lesson provides an overview of these techniques, as a refresher, to prepare students for the more advanced problems in the remainder of the book. Because this chapter is intended only as a brief overview, it does not provide a comprehensive explanation of all details. If students experience difficulty with the material in this chapter, they may wish to review the more comprehensive coverage provided in Foundations of Real Estate Mathematics. If you are having trouble with the calculations in this chapter, the later more complex analysis will be much more difficult. Review and Discussion Questions 1.
