b.


Next, locate the column at the top describing the
type of loan you wish to get. In this case it will be a
"Fixed Rate Loan". Then choose the 30 yrs. column,
and locate where "a" and "b" converge to see ".78"


c.
Multiply $100,000 (your loan amount ) by .78%
<center>
</center>
<center>$100,000 x .0078 = $780

</center>
<center>
</center>
d.
Divide $780 by 12 (months) = $65 per month PMI

<center>$65 is your Monthly PMI Premium!
