An ARM is made for $200,000 for 30 years with the following terms: |
||||||
Initial interest rate = 3% |
||||||
Index = 1-year Treasuries |
||||||
Payments reset each year |
||||||
Margin = 2 percent |
||||||
Fully amortizing |
||||||
Estimated forward rates: |
||||||
BOY 2 | 4.50% | |||||
BOY 3 | 5.25% | |||||
BOY 4 | 6% | |||||
BOY 5 | 6.50% | |||||
Compute payments and balances for each of the years 1-5. |
Given,
Initial rate= 3%
Index= 1 year Treasury rate . Margin =2%. Reset frequency= yearly
Interest cap is not specified.
Index for Year 2= 4.5%. Therefore, interest rate= 4.5%+2% = 6.5%
Index for Year 3= 5.25%. Therefore, interest rate= 5.25%+2% = 7.25%
Index for Year 4= 6%. Therefore, interest rate= 6%+2% = 8%
Index for Year 5= 6.5%. Therefore, interest rate= 6.5%+2% = 8.5%
Year 1: Monthly payments= $843.21 Balance at the end= $195,824.40
Year 2: Monthly payments= $1,251.73 Balance at the end= $193,462.64
Year 3: Monthly payments= $1,346.80 Balance at the end= $191,254.62
Year 4: Monthly payments= $1,442.60 Balance at the end= $189,168.46
Year 5: Monthly payments= $1,506.50 Balance at the end= $187,090.05
