Answer key: DSCR Loan worksheet

  1. 1. DSCR: 2.79

    1. Find the monthly loan payment. A standard formula finds the one amount that clears the loan in 300 months, where the monthly rate is the yearly rate ÷ 12

      $320,000.00×0.00751−(1+0.0075)−300=$2,685.43
    2. Find the yearly debt payments: 12 loan payments plus your other loan payments

      $2,685.43×12+$0.00=$32,225.14
    3. Divide the income by the debt payments. Above 1 means the income covers them, and below 1 means it falls short

      $90,000.00$32,225.14=2.7929
    4. Find the most the debt payments can be at your target: income ÷ 1.1

      $90,000.001.1=$81,818.18
    5. Take off the costs that aren't this loan's payment, then find the monthly payment left

      $81,818.18−$0.0012=$6,818.18
    6. Turn that payment back into a loan: find the amount that payment would clear over the same term and rate
