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; /// i believe the correct answer is (all of the above);

the correct answer is economics is a game without winners or losers.

unlike sports or games economic is a game without losers or winner rather it is a game where everyone wins. parties of business doing businesses exchange money with each other and hence exchange is done on the basis of goods. one party takes the goods and other sales it so there is winner on both sides. each party values more highly the good it gets than the good it gives up. both sides exchange only because both intend to increase their value. so there is no concept of lose or win.
