Be sure to include the following in your response:

the answer to the original question
the mathematical steps for solving the problem demonstrating mathematical reasoning

$187,500 is cost of house. 20%, or $37,500 is the down payment. The loan amount would be $187,500 - $37,500 = $150,000. If we assume the annual rate of the loan is 4.65% Then the monthly rate would be 4.65%/12 = 0.3875% If the loan is $150,000, the interest is 0.3875% The interst for the first month is $150,000 * 0.3875% = $581.25. You stated that their payment is $1,575. So the amount that pays off the loan is $1,575 - $581.25 = $993.75. At the end of the month, they owe $150,000 - $993.75 = $149,006.25 For the second month, the amount of the payment that goes towards intrest is $149,006.25 * 0.3875% = $577.40. and the amount that goes towards the loan is $997.60. At the end of the second month they owe $148,008.65. Regarding realized income, we recommend a monthly loan payment not to exceed 28% of the monthly income. So if a payment of $1,575 is 28% of Gross, then the math is : $1,575 = 0.28*Gross. Gross = $5,625 monthly. About $67,500 annually. About $33.75 an hour.

Their realized income be $5,625 monthly

About $67,500 annually and about $33.75 an hour.

We have given that

$187,500 is cost of house.

The down payment.

20%/100=0.20

187500×0.20=37,500

20%, or $37,500 is the down payment.What is the formula for loan amount.

What is the formula for loan amount?

loan amount = unpaid balance - down payment

The loan amount would be

$187,500 - $37,500 = $150,000.

Now total amount for pay is 150,000

The interest rate for the mortgage is 4.65%.

Then the monthly rate would be

4.65%/12 = 0.3875%

If the loan is $150,000, the interest is 0.3875%

The interest for the first month is $150,000 × 0.3875% = $581.25.

You stated that their payment is $1,575.

So the amount that pays off the loan is

$1,575 - $581.25 = $993.75.

At the end of the month, they owe

$150,000 - $993.75 = $149,006.25

For the second month, the amount of the payment that goes towards interest is

$149,006.25 × 0.3875% = $577.40.

and the amount that goes towards the loan is $997.60.

At the end of the second month they owe $148,008.65.

we recommend a monthly loan payment not to exceed 28% of the monthly income. So if a payment of $1,575 is 28% of Gross,

then the

$1,575 = 0.28×Gross.

divide both side by 0.28

Gross = $5,625 monthly.

Therefore,

Gross = $5,625 monthly.

About $67,500 annually.

About $33.75 an hour.
