Yield of a Discounted (or Premium) Mortgage
The annual yield of a mortgage bought at a discount or premium can be calculated given the 
original mortgage amount (PV), interest rate (I/YR), periodic payment (PMT), balloon payment 
amount (FV), and the price paid for the mortgage (new PV).
Remember the cash flow sign convention: money paid out is negative; money received is 
positive.
Example
An investor wishes to purchase a 100,000 mortgage taken out at 9% for 20 years. Since the 
mortgage was issued, 42 monthly payments have been made. The loan is to be paid in full 
(a balloon payment) at the end of its fifth year. What is the yield to the purchaser if the price 
of the mortgage is 79,000?
Step 1
Calculate PMT. Make sure FV = 0.
Set to End Mode. Press \¯ if BEGIN annunciator is displayed.
Step 2
Enter the new value for N indicating when the balloon occurs, then find FV, the amount of the 
balloon.
