A lender charges 2 discount points and a 1% origination fee on a $350,000 loan. What is the total amount the borrower pays in points and origination fees at closing?
A$3,500
B$7,000
C$10,500✓ Correct
D$17,500
Explanation
Each point = 1% of loan amount. 2 discount points = 2% × $350,000 = $7,000. Origination fee = 1% × $350,000 = $3,500. Total = $7,000 + $3,500 = $10,500.
