Jen receives a salary of $4050.00 per month. a. According to the GDSR formula, what is the maximum monthly mortgage payment they can afford? b.

Because their present gross income has placed them in a relatively high tax bracket, they have decided to invest a minimum of $2400/month in monthly payments toward the purchase of their house. However, because of other financial obligations, their monthly payments should not exceed $3000. If local mortgage rates are 5.5%/year compounded monthly for a conventional 30-year mortgage, what is the price range of houses that they should consider? 'A nest egg is a substantial sum of money or other assets that have been saved or invested for a specific purpose.arrow_forwardSuppose you have just purchased your first home for $550,000. At the time of purchase you could only afford to commit to a down payment of $55,000. In order to make the loan, the lender requires you to obtain private mortgage insurance (PMI) on their behalf. Suppose over time you paid down the principal of the loan to $535,000 and at that point in time you can no longer make any mortgage payments (i.e., you default on the loan). If the lender were to foreclose on your property and sell it for $508,000 (net proceeds), what would the lender's loss of principal be taking into consideration the protection of mortgage insurance? (Let's assume that the PMI in this case covers the top 25% of the loan.)arrow_forward
