Tax, Insurance and Expense Keys
In addition to Qualifying, the following keys are also involved in PITI
or total payment calculations (e.g., they are added to the monthly
payment):
t
Property Tax
— Used for calculating PITI and Total
payment, and Qualifying. Stores estimated annual
property tax in either percent or dollar amount. If
entered as an annual dollar amount, a press of ®
and t converts to the monthly tax amount, and
pressing t again converts to the annual percent-
age rate. If entered as a percentage, pressing ®
t converts to the annual dollar amount, and
pressing t once more shows the monthly tax.
Note: Entering a number equal to or less than 10 is assumed to
be an annual percentage. Property tax is calculated from the
sales price (therefore, you should also enter a Down Payment).
I

and Total payment, and Qualifying. Stores estimated
annual property (or homeowner’s) insurance in
either percent or dollar amount. If entered as an
annual dollar amount, a press of ® and I con-
verts to the monthly insurance amount or premium,
and pressing I again converts to the annual per-
centage rate. If entered as a percentage, pressing
® I converts to the annual dollar amount, and
pressing I once more shows the monthly insurance.
Note: Entering a number equal to or less than 10 is assumed to
be an annual percentage. Property insurance is calculated from

ing PITI and Total payment, and Qualifying. Stores
