(Problems 80 points) 1. A fully amortizing mortgage loan is made for 580,000 at 6 percent interest for 25 years. Payments are to be made monthly. Calculate: a. Monthly payments. b. Interest and principal payments during month 1. c. Total principal and total interest paid over 25 years. d. The outstanding loan balance if the loan is repaid at the end of year 10. e. Total monthly interest and principal payments through year 10. f. What would the breakdown of interest and principal be during month 50? 2. Assume that a lender offers a 30 year, $150,000 adjustable rate mortgage with the following terms: Initial interest rate =7.5 percent Index = 1 year treasuries Payments reset each year Margin = 2 percent Interest rate cap = 1 percent annually, 3 percent lifetime Discount points = 2 percent Fully amortizing: however, negative amortization allowed if interest rate caps reached Based on estimated forward rates, the index to which the ARM is tied is forecasted as follows: Beginning of Year(BOY) 2= 7 percent, (BOY) 3 = 8.5 percent, BOY 4= 9.5 percent: EOY 5 = 11 percent. Compute the payments, loan balances, and yield for the ARM for the five year period. 11. An "interest only" mortgage is made for $80,000 at 10 percent interest for 10 years. The lender and borrower agree that monthly payments will be constant and will require no loan amortization. a. What will the monthly payments be? b. What will be the loan balance after 5 years? c. If the loan is repaid after 5 years, what will be the yield to the lender? d. Instead of being repaid after 5 years, what will be the yield if the loan is repaid after 10 years? 12. An investor obtained a fully amortizing mortgage 5 years ago for $95,000 at 11 % for 30 years. Mortgage rates have dropped, so that a fully amortizing 25 year loan can be obtained at 10%. There is no prepayment penalty on the mortgage balance of the original loan, but three points will be charged on the new loan and other closing costs will be $2000. All payments are monthly. a) Should the borrower refinance if he plans to own the property for the remaining loan term? Assume that the investor borrows only an amount equal to the outstanding balance of the loan. b) Would you answer to part (a) change if he planned to own the property for only five more years? 13. Compare the following mortgages and determine which has the lower cost: Mortgage amount Term Discount points Initial contract interest rate Margin Caps Index value at outset Prepayment FRM $100,000 30 years 2.00 9.75% … … … End of year 3 ARM $100,000 30 years 3.25 7.75% 2.75 2% annual, 6% lifetime 7.75% End of year 3 Assume that the ARM rate adjusts from the initial beginning rate and the index has the following values: BEGINNING OF THE YEAR INDEX VALUE 1 7.75% 2 9.00 3 10.75 14. Consider a property with expected future net cash flows of $25,000 per year for the next five years (starting one year from now). After that, the operating cash flow should step up 20%, to $30,000, for the following five years. a. If you expect to sell the property 10 years from now for a price 10 times the net cash flow at that time, what is the value of the property if the required return is 12%? b. Suppose the seller of the building wants $260,000. Should you do the deal? Why or why not? What is the IRR if you pay $260,000? How does this compare to the required return of 12%? What is the IRR if you could get the seller to accept $248,075 for the property? What is the NPV at that price? c. Suppose that the required return on the property is 11% instead of 12% (in comparison to part b). What would the value of the property be? By what percentage has this value changed as a result of this 100-basis-point change in the required return? 15. Jacob (from Twilight) can obtain an 85 percent loan with an 8 percent interest rate and monthly payments. The loan is to be fully amortized over 25 years. Alternatively, he could obtain a 95 percent loan at an 8.5 percent rate with the same loan term. The borrower plans to own the property for the entire loan term. a. What is the incremental cost of borrowing the additional funds? (Hint: the dollar amount of the loan doesn’t affect the answer.) b. How would your answer change if two points were charged on the 95 percent loan? c. Would your answer to part (b) change if the borrower planned to own the property for only five years 16.

The following table gives the NPI total return for a three year(12-quarter) period for Boston and San Francisco.

The arithmetic average return and the geometric return. b. The standard deviation of the return. c. Now compute the quarterly Sharpe ratio for each. The Sharpe ratio is a measure of riskadjusted return performance, defined as the risk premium divided by the volatility. Assume that the average quarterly return to Treasury Bonds during the period in question was 1.70%. Which city had the better Sharpe ratio. 18.
