Bob's GMI is $2,000 per month. He currently rents an apartment for $800 per month. Bob has a $199 monthly car lease and an $80 monthly credit card payment. What is Bob's qualifiying ratio?

40/54

Explanation:

Bob's GMI = $2,000

Rent = $800

Car lease = $199

Credit card payment = $80

First, we'd calculate the percentage of his income that is his rent.

We have,

(800 ÷ 1000) x 100%

                             =40%

then we can calculate what percentage of his GMI is his spending

we have,

(800 + 199 + 80)  ÷ 2000

         (1079 ÷ 2000) × 100%

             = 0.54 × 100%

              = 54%.

This means that Bob's qualifying ratio is 40/54 i.e his housing/debt ratio.

With a qualifying ratio of 40/54, it is very impossible for him to get the smallest of mortgage loan product, etc.

Bob will need to find a co-borrower or another person that can lend a higher amount.

Cheers.

answer: a. the kind of population living in your neighbourhood.

the census explorer data tool by the us census bureau allows the user to zoom in on any neighbourhood within the united states and find the kind of people residing in that by race and age.  

the tool needs to needs to be used twice – once in order to find what type of people reside in a neighbourhood, and then to see the age groups of the people in the same neighbourhood.
