Mathematics: Mortgage

The mathematics becomes more complex with . Unlike fixed-rate loans, ARMs use a variable

In the early stages of a mortgage, the majority of the monthly payment is directed toward interest. This is because interest is calculated based on the remaining principal. As the principal decreases, the interest portion of the payment shrinks, allowing a larger share of the payment to be applied to the principal. This creates a "snowball effect" where the equity in the home grows at an accelerating rate toward the end of the loan term. 3. The Impact of Compounding and Frequency mortgage mathematics

M=Pr(1+r)n(1+r)n−1cap M equals cap P the fraction with numerator r open paren 1 plus r close paren to the n-th power and denominator open paren 1 plus r close paren to the n-th power minus 1 end-fraction = Total monthly payment P = Principal loan amount r = Monthly interest rate (annual rate divided by 12) n = Total number of payments (months) 2. The Amortization Process The mathematics becomes more complex with

The term "amortization" comes from the Old French amortir , meaning "to kill." In finance, it refers to "killing off" a debt over time. As the principal decreases, the interest portion of
