A Louisiana buyer is approved for a maximum DTI of 43%. Their gross monthly income is $6,000. Their existing monthly debt payments are $650. What is the maximum additional monthly mortgage payment they can qualify for?
A$1,930✓ Correct
B$2,580
C$1,580
D$2,130
Explanation
Maximum total debt = $6,000 × 43% = $2,580. Maximum additional mortgage = $2,580 − $650 = $1,930. To solve this, multiply the relevant values: $6,000 and $650 at 43%.. The correct answer is $1,930.. This is a common calculation on the Louisiana real estate exam.
