It is December 1, 2019, and Smiley Mirus has several debts she is considering consolidating into |
|||||||||
one mortgage, through a refinancing process. |
|||||||||
Firstly, Smiley has a mortgage on her house that was taken out on 3/1/15, with the |
|||||||||
mortgage being $154,600. The mortgage, payable in monthly installments of $794.86, |
|||||||||
is a 30 year mortgage at an annual interest rate of 4.625%. Today, 12/1/19, |
|||||||||
immediately after the 12/1/19 payment, the mortgage balance stands at $141,941. |
|||||||||
Secondly, Smiley has a home equity loan (a loan in which the value of the home |
|||||||||
is used as security to the holder). This loan was taken out on 4/1/15 in the amount of |
|||||||||
$38,600. This is a 15 year loan, at 4.375% annual interest, with monthly payments currently |
|||||||||
at $292.83. Unfortunately this equity loan has a 5-year "balloon" provision, which states that |
|||||||||
five years after origination of the loan (4/1/20) the bank will revise the interest rate on |
|||||||||
the remaining loan balance to the market interest rate in effect at that time. Also, after |
|||||||||
4/1/20, the bank will revise the loan's interest rate annually, beginning 5/1/20. |
|||||||||
Today, December 1, 2019, the equity loan balance stands at $29,170. |
|||||||||
Smiley would like to consolidate both loans into one fixed rate mortgate, for two reasons. |
|||||||||
First, interest rates currently offered were extremely good. Second, the five-year balloon |
|||||||||
entails risk that Smiley does not want to contend with, due to the possibility of the interest |
|||||||||
rate increasing dramatically when the balloon triggers on 5/1/20. |
|||||||||
Smiley visited her local mortgage broker and was offered the following. |
|||||||||
::Thirty year fixed rate mortgage, annual interest rate of 2.875%, with one point.* |
|||||||||
::Thirty year fixed rate mortgage, annual interest rate of 3.175%, with zero points. |
|||||||||
::Fifteen year fixed rate mortgage, annual interest rate of 2.375%, with two points. |
|||||||||
::Fifteen year fixed rate mortgage, annual interest rate of 2.75%, with zero points. |
|||||||||
Costs to refinance and consolidate the existing loans into one mortgage total |
|||||||||
$4,300 for the 30 year mortgages, and $3,000 for the 15 year mortgages, not including points. |
|||||||||
These costs are added to the loan balance. |
|||||||||
Assume payments on the new mortgage will begin12/1/19. |
|||||||||
Prepare loan amortization schedules for the four above options, as well as for the |
|||||||||
original loans. Use a net present value approach in formulating your analysis. |
|||||||||
Remember, this is a cash outflow analysis and as such payback and internal rate of return |
|||||||||
cannot be calculated. Only net present value can be calculated. |
|||||||||
*a "point" is a fee paid for a superior interest rate, with one point amounting to one |
|||||||||
percent of the amount borrowed, two points are two percent of the amount borrowed, etc. |
|||||||||
This fee is added to the loan balance and included in the loan payments accordingly. |
|||||||||
1) In your opinion, which of the above loan options, if any, should she adopt? |
|||||||||
2) In answering #1, be sure to clearly explain the technique you used to determine your answer. Also |
|||||||||
Also thoroughly explain what your answer means. |
|||||||||
3) Organize your work nicely, with appropriate page breaks. Your loan amortization schedules will |
|||||||||
be quite large covering several pages. I suggest you use the "Print titles" command to enable |
|||||||||
the column headings to appear on each page. Poorly formatted analyses will lose points. |
