How do you calculate down payment?

Find out the sales price of the house you want to purchase. If you are not in negotiation with the seller, the price for which it is listed will work. For example, if the house is listed at $100,000 sales price, use this number for your calculations. Multiply the purchase price by 5 percent, the minimum down payment required for most conventional mortgages. For this example, multiply $100,000 (the sales price) by 5 percent (or 0.05) to equal $5,000. Therefore, the minimum down payment for a conventional mortgage on the $100,000 house is $5,000. Note that you will have to pay PMI (private mortgage insurance) if your down payment is less than 20 percent of the price of the home. PMI is a fee charged by the lender to the borrower that protects the lender in the event of the borrower's default. In other words, the only benefiting party when you pay PMI is the lender. To avoid PMI, make a down payment of at least 20 percent. Calculate that amount by multiplying your sales price by 20 percent. For this example, $100,000 x 0.20 = $20,000.

How do you work out percentage profit?

Basically, percent profit is: (selling price - cost) / cost = decimal equivalent of percent profit Ex. If selling price was 4 dollars, and the cost was only 2 dollar, the percent profit is: ( 4 - 2 ) / 2 = 2/2 = 1.0 To convert the resulting decimal equivalent of the percent to an indicated percentage then multiply the value (here 1.0) by 100, or move the decimal point two places rightward. 1.0 = 100% The percentage profit was 100%
