Answer:
Let your monthly income = $ x
As, Mortgage payment does not exceed 28% of the total monthly income.
Monthly mortgage payment = $1,125.98
So, 28% of x=1125.98
[tex]=\frac{28x}{100}=1125.98\\\\x=\frac{112598}{28}\\\\ x=4021.3571[/tex]
So, Your monthly income should be $ 4021.36 (approx) to stay within acceptable housing expense limits.
