They just made their 45th payment, and the current balance on the loan is $208,555.87. Interest rates are at an all-time low, and Dave and Jana are thinking of refinancing to a new 15-year fixed loan. Their bank has made the following offer: 15-year term, 3.0%, plus out- of-pocket costs of $2,937. The out-of-pocket costs must be paid in full at the time of refinancing. Build a spreadsheet model to evaluate this offer. The Excel function: =PMT(rate, nper, pv, fv, type) calculates the payment for a loan based on constant payments and a constant interest rate. The arguments of this function are: rate the interest rate for the loan nper = the total number of payments pv = present value (the amount borrowed) fv = future value [the desired cash balance after the last payment (usually 0)] type = payment type (0 = end of period, 1 =…

Suppose 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.)
