Note to Users of the Qualifier Plus IIx Handheld Model:

The only difference between the Qualifier Plus IIx desktop model

and the Qualifier Plus IIx handheld model, besides the size, are a

few changes in key locations. The desktop model has room for ded-

icated [ARM Cap], [Bal] (Remaining Balance), and [APR] keys, while

the handheld model, due to smaller size, lists these calculations over

other keys as 2nd functions, allowing access via the [Set] key.

[Per]

ance value as per period rather than per year. For

example, 360 [Per] [Term] enters 360 periods.

alent mortgage components) and Down

Payment. Note: Entered Sales Price values will

not normally change.

tion or to separate ARM Int: Term and Qualifying

[ARM] Adjustable Rate Mortgage — Calculates payment

and re-amortizes fully or partially amortized

Adjustable Rate Mortgage based on the inputs of

both Interest Adjustment and Term Adjustment,

which are separated by the Colon [:] key. For

example, an ARM which adjusts 1% every year is

entered 1 [:] 1 [ARM]. By using the [Set] [ARM]

function, you can easily adjust the rate up or

down to display future payments. (ARM rates are

stored permanently.)

interest cap for ARMs by entering the maximum

interest increase. This is a permanent setting; to

clear, set the cap back to zero (0 [ARM Cap]).

[Tax] Property Tax — Stores and recalls annual prop-

erty tax in either percent or dollar amount. If

entered as a dollar amount, a second press con-

verts to annual percentage rate. If entered as a

percentage, a second press shows annual dollar

amount. Entering the number 10 or less is

assumed to be an annual percentage. Calculated

from the sales price.

5 – User’s Guide

property insurance in either percent or dollar

amount. If entered as a dollar amount, a second

press converts to annual percentage rate. If

Calculated from the sales price.

Note: Tax & Insurance entered as dollar

amounts will remain fixed, even if sales price

as a percentage of sales price or loan amount,

these items will automatically be re-calculated

if sales price or loan amount are changed.

[Set] Used to permanently set the number of dis-

played decimal places (see the section on

Decimal Place Selection). Also works with other

keys to set or activate additional functions.

(Think of it as a “shift” key on a typewriter.) It

will perform the function printed above the key

on the calculator’s face. A small boxed “S” will

appear in the upper-left side of your display

when this key has been pressed.

[Set] [÷] Payments per Year — Used to set the number of

payment periods per year. Default value is 12,

for monthly. Note that if you change this setting,

it will remain permanently stored even if you

turn the calculator off. You must perform an All-

Clear ([Set] [x]), or reset to 12 payments per year

(12 [Set] [÷]).

[Set] [x] All-Clear — Clears and resets the calculator to

its default settings and values. Use this only with

caution as it will reset ratios, periods per year,

etc. back to default settings (see the appendix

Qualifying Keys

[Qual 1] A multi-function key which, based on entered

variables, performs the following qualifying

functions:

1) Stores income and debt ratios for loan quali-

fying. Entered ratios are separated by the Colon

[:] key. For example, income and debt ratios of

28% and 36%, respectively, are entered and

permanently stored as follows: 28 [:] 36 [Qual 1].

Default income and debt ratios for this key are

28% and 36%, respectively. You may change

qualifying ratios, if desired.

2) Calculates the maximum loan amount for

which a buyer may qualify for based on the

stored income and debt qualifying ratios and

the entered:

• term

• interest

• annual income

• monthly debt

— and optional—

• annual tax and insurance

• monthly housing expenses

First press of [Qual 1] displays stored qualifying

ratios; 2nd press calculates the qualifying loan

amount; 3rd press calculates the “non-restrictive”

qualifying loan amount; 4th press calculates the

borrower’s actual income & debt ratios. Note that

the loan amount displayed is the lower, or

“restrictive” of the two possible loan amounts

8 – Qualifier Plus

IIx DT

(based either on the income ratio or the debt

ratio). The “non-restrictive” loan amount (the

other side) can be found by pressing [Qual 1] a

third time. The calculator will display the loan

amount with a negative sign (—) and the word

“INC” or “DEBT” to indicate the restrictive side

(income or debt).

3) Calculates the annual income required and

allowable monthly debt for a desired loan

amount or sales price based on the stored

income and debt qualifying ratios and the

entered:

• term

• interest

• price (down payment) or loan amount

4) Also finds buyer’s actual income and debt

ratios given both buyer and property data.

First press of [Qual 1] displays stored qualifying

ratios; 2nd press calculates the buyer’s actual

ratios.

[Qual 2] Stores additional (e.g., Government FHA/VA)

Income and Debt ratios and operates identically

to [Qual 1] key. Default Income and Debt ratios

for this key are 29% and 41%, respectively.

[Inc] Income — Enters the annual income for loan

qualifying.

[Debt] Enters long-term monthly debts.

In addition to Qualifying, the following keys are also involved

in PITI calculations (e.g., they are added to the monthly pay-

ment to calculate the total PITI payment):
