OWN A HOME OR CAR

Chapter 6

6.1 Borrowing to Buy a Home

Goals Calculate the down payment, closing costs, and

mortgage loan amount Calculate the total interest cost of a mortgage loan Calculate the savings from refinancing mortgages

The Total Cost of buying a home includes the purchase price, the cost of borrowing money for the purchase, and the closing costs

Most people make a cash down payment, or a percentage of the total cost of the house paid at the time of purchase, to their lender.


A mortgage loan is a loan taken with a bank or other lender for the purchase of a new home.

The money borrowed is called the Principal

A mortgage gives the lender the right to take the property if the loan is not repaid as agreed.

Common terms of mortgages are 15, 20, and 30 years


Closing Costs are fees and expenses paid to complete the transfer of ownership of a home.

Closing costs typically include legal fees, recording fees, title insurance, loan application fees, appraisal and inspection fees, land surveys, prepaid taxes, and prepaid interest charges known as points.

Interest rates and closing costs vary among lenders, so it pays to compare when looking for a lender.


To calculate the amount of a loan you need, subtract the down payment from the purchase price.

Mortgage Loan = Purchase Price – Down Payment

To calculate the amount of money you need to buy a home, add the down payment and the closing costs.

Cash Needed to Buy a Home = Down Payment + Closing Costs


Hilda Mikon is buying a home for $74,000. She will make a 20% down payment and estimates closing costs as: legal fees, $950; title insurance, $140; property survey, $250; inspection, $175; loan processing fee, $84; recording fee, $740. What amount of mortgage loan will she need? What amount of cash will she need when she buys the house?

Find the Down Payment $74,000 x .20 = $14,800

Find the amount of the mortgage loan $74,000 - $14,800 = $59,200

Find the total closing costs $950 + $140 + $250 + $175 + $84 + $740 = $2,339

Find the cash needed to buy a house $14,800 + 2,339 = $17,139

There are many different types of mortgages. The two most common are… Fixed Rate – Same Interest Rate for the Life of the

Loan

Variable Rate – The Rate of Interest is based on the Interest Rate Economy

Most mortgages are repaid in equal monthly payments

Part of the payment goes to principal and part goes to interest

6.2 Renting or Owning a Home

COST OF HOME OWNERSHIPAfter a home is bought, homeowners have

many outgoing expenses. These include Property Taxes Repairs Maintenance Utilities Insurance Mortgage Interest And special services such as trash pickup


Two other less obvious expenses include depreciation and loss of income on the money invested in the home.

Depreciation is the loss in value of property cause by aging and use. Examples of depreciation

Weathering of a roof Change of Home Styles Home becoming too expensive to heat and cool

Most homes depreciate about 1% to 4% of its original value per year


Loss of Income occurs because the money initially invested in buying the property (down payment and closing costs) could have been deposited into an investment account and earned interest.

One financial benefit homeowners have is that they may include the interest they pay on their home mortgage and their property taxes as itemized deductions on their income tax returns.


Take a look at Example 1 on page 230


The Krafts want to buy a home. Their estimated first year expenses are: mortgage interest, $6,848; Property Taxes, $3,782; Insurance, $560; Depreciation, $1,790; Utilities, $1,300; Maintenance and Repairs, $2,050.

6.3 Property Taxes

DECIMAL TAX RATEProperty taxes are taxes on the value of real

estate such as homes, business property, or farm land.

Taxes are collected annually or semiannually by the tax departments of local tax districts such as cities or townships where the property is located.

The amount of property tax paid is based on the assessed value of a property.

6.3 Property Taxes

Assessed values are generally less than their market values.

Local tax districts then determine the decimal tax rate, which is the tax rate at which the property is to be taxed.

6.4 Property Insurance

Goals Calculate property insurance premiums for

homeowners Calculate property insurance premiums for renters Calculate how much can be collected on insurance

claims


PROPERTY OWNERS INSURANCE PREMIUMSA policy that covers your home and protects you

against other risks is called homeowners insurance.

Basic homeowners insurance covers Dwelling – your home Other Structures – such as garages Personal Property – contents of your home Additional Living Expenses – cost of living expenses Personal Liability – protection against lawsuits Medical Payments to Others – medical expenses for injury


Other Insurance Notes Off Premises insurance covers personal property when

you are away from home. For example, if the luggage and clothes you take on vacation

are stolen, their loss would be covered Usually about 10% of the amount of your policy

Replacement Cost Policies The Insurance Co. will pay the cost of replacing your

property at current prices Ex. If a $600 leather chair is destroyed in a fire, the

insurer will pay for a replacement even if it costs $900 now

Premiums are about 10%-15% higher than a standard policy


The money paid to an insurance company for property insurance is called the insurance premium.

Your premium will vary depending on Kind of coverage you buy How your house or apartment is built (Brick, Wood) Where it is located (Close to Fire Dept)


David Duval insured his house for $89,000 at an annual rate of $0.51 per $100. Find his Premium.

Solution:Find the number of $100 units in the insured amount

$89,000 / $100 = 890 units

Multiply the rate per $100 by number of units890 x $0.51 = $453.90


Vijay Singh insured his home for $61,000. Find the annual premium, to the nearest dollar, he will pay for a policy that costs $0.46 per $100.

$61,000 / $100 = 610 units

610 x $0.46 = $281


Chi Chi Rodriguez insures his home for $43,000. What annual premium will he pay if the policy cost is $0.74 per $100

43,000 / 100 = 430 units

430 x $0.74 = $318


RENTERS INSURANCE PREMIUMSA renters policy provides nearly the same

coverage as a homeowners policy except for loss of the dwelling and other structures.

Annual premiums for a renters policy are based on the amount of insurance on the contents of your apartment or rental home.


We will use the table below to calculate the renters policy rates.

$30,000 $177 $204


Dottie Pepper rents an apartment that is 4.1 miles from a fire station. He insures its contents for $10,000. A computer system Dottie owns is also insured, but at an extra cost of $27 per year. What total annual premium will Dottie pay for this coverage?

Solution:Locate the premium on the chart. $129

Add the basic premium cost of additional insurance, if any. $129 + $27 = $156


Greg Norman wants to insure his apartment’s contents for $25,000. In addition, he decides to insure golf clubs appraised at $3,000 for an additional premium of $31. He lives one block from the fire station. Find his total premium for one year.

$165 + $31 = $196


Bobby Jones rents a home that is located 12 miles from the nearest fire station. He insures the home’s contents for $5,000. What annual premium will he pay?

$138


COLLECTING ON INSURANCE CLAIMSIf your property is damaged by fire or theft occurs,

you have to file a claim with your company.

The company will send an adjuster to look at the property and decide on the amount of loss.

Your basic policy usually contains a deductible. With a $100 deductible, you are responsible for the first $100 of your loss and the insurance company will pay for the rest.

The higher the deductible, the lower the premium


Your policy has a face value of $30,000 with a $1,000 deductible. How much will the insurance company pay if your loss is $7,800?

$7,800 - $1,000 = $6,800


How much will an insurance company pay for a loss of $10,200 if property is insured for $18,000 with a $250 deductible?

$10,200 - $250 = $9,950


Property insured for $70,000 with a $500 deductible suffers a loss of $82,000. How much will the insurance company pay?

$70,000 - $500 = $69,500

6.5 Buying a Car

6.6 Depreciating a Car

Goals Calculate average annual depreciation on a car Calculate the rate of depreciation


A car loses value as it grows older. This loss of value is called depreciation.

To find depreciation

Original Cost – Trade-in/Resale Value = Depreciation

When you buy a car, you can only estimate what the depreciation will be. The actual amount of depreciation will be known only when the car is sold or traded.


To calculate the estimated average annual depreciation on a car, follow these steps:1. Estimate the number of years the car will be kept2. Estimate the value of the car when it is resold or

traded in3. Subtract trade-in value from the original cost to

estimate total depreciation4. Divide the total depreciation by the number of years

the car will be kept.


John Smiley bought a car for $14,800. He estimates its trade-in value will be $5,800 at the end of 4 years. Find the estimated total and the estimated average annual depreciation of the car.

Estimated total depreciationOriginal Cost - Trade-in Value = Total Depreciation

$14,800 - $5,800 = $9,000

Estimated average annual depreciationTotal Depreciation ÷ Years = Est. Ave. Annual Dep.

$9,000 ÷ 4 = $2,250


Bob Walk bought a new care for $19,500. He has been told that his car will probably be worth $9,800 at the end of two years. What will be his estimated total and average annual depreciation for two years


$19,500 - $9,800 = $9,700


$9,700 ÷ 2 = $4,850


Jose Lind bought a car 9 years ago for $14,130. She sold it recently for $1,800. What was the total and average annual depreciation on the car?


$14,130 - $1,800 = $12,330


$12,330 ÷ 9 = $1,370


When the straight-line method of finding depreciation is used, the average annual depreciation may be shown as a percent of the original cost. The percent is called rate of deprecation.

Rate of Depreciation = Ave. Annual Depreciation ÷ Original Cost


A $12,000 car is sold 3 years later for $6,960. What is the rate of depreciation?

First, Find the total depreciation $12,000 - $6,960 = $5,040

Next, Find the Ave. Annual Depreciation $5,040 ÷ 3 = $1,680

Ave Annual Depreciation ÷ Original Cost = Rate of depreciation $1,680 ÷ $12,000 = 0.14 or 14%


A new car that cost $23,000 is worth $16,100 a year later. What was the rate of depreciation for the one year.

First, Find the total depreciation $23,000 - $16,100 = $6,900

Next, Find the Ave. Annual Depreciation $6,900 ÷ 1= $6,900

Ave Annual Depreciation ÷ Original Cost = Rate of depreciation $6,900 ÷ $23,000 = 0.3 or 30%


Orlando Merced sold his car for $368. He paid $9,200 for the car when he bought it 12 years ago. What was the annual rate of depreciation?

First, Find the total depreciation $9,200 - $368 = $8,832

Next, Find the Ave. Annual Depreciation $8,832 ÷ 12 = $736

Ave Annual Depreciation ÷ Original Cost = Rate of depreciation $736 ÷ $9,200 = 0.08 or 8%
