Mortgage to income ratio: Common rules The 28% mortgage rule states that you should spend 28% or less of your monthly gross income on your mortgage payment (including principal, interest, taxes and insurance). To gauge how much you can afford using this rule, multiply your monthly gross income by 28%.
To afford a $700,000 house, you typically need an annual income between $175,000 to $235,000, depending on your financial situation, down payment, credit score, and current market conditions. However, this is a general range, and your specific circumstances will determine the exact income required.
Mortgage payment formula Monthly interest rate: Lenders provide you an annual rate so you'll need to divide that figure by 12 (the number of months in a year) to get the monthly rate. If your interest rate is 5 percent, your monthly rate would be 0.004167 (0.05/12=0.004167).
How Is My Interest Payment Calculated? Lenders multiply your outstanding balance by your annual interest rate but divide by 12 because you're making monthly payments.
The formula for calculating simple interest is: Interest = P R T. P = Principal amount (the beginning balance). R = Interest rate (usually per year, expressed as a decimal).
To calculate the payoff ratio, you need to divide the average profit of winning trades by the average loss of losing trades. In this example, the payoff ratio is 2, meaning that the average profit per winning trade is twice the average loss per losing trade.
