The checklist, item by item, against the March statement

Every printed total on the sample is a sum or a quotient you can form from the rows above it.

The sample above is the March letter. Each printed total is a check. Interest is two Act/360 legs on $1,847,220.00: 11 days at 6.97 percent give $3,934.07, 20 days at 7.22 percent give $7,409.40, and the sum is $11,343.47. The balance chain is $1,847,220.00 + $0.00 + $0.00 + $11,343.47 = $1,858,563.47. Both lines recompute.

The collateral block, row by row and then as totals:

  • Meridian 12,400 × $148.25 = $1,838,300, lending value $919,150 at 0.50.
  • Calder 3,100 × $593.55 = $1,840,005, lending value $644,001.75 at 0.35.
  • Collective 4,150 × $214.80 = $891,420, lending value $623,994 at 0.70.
  • Oakridge 8,200 × $62.40 = $511,680, lending value $281,424 at 0.55.
  • Government fund 18,600 × $51.15 = $951,390, lending value $808,681.50 at 0.85.
  • Book $6,032,795. Lending value $3,277,251.25. Blended advance 54.32 percent.

The test block is three more quotients. Trigger $1,858,563.47 ÷ 0.70 = $2,655,090.67. Headroom $3,377,704.33, or 55.99 percent. Market LTV 30.81 percent. Shortfall on the printed book is $0.00; a sale-to-cure is not generated. The 60 percent uniform stress from earlier tracks is a different book, and it is not this letter.

A checklist is the letter run backwards: each total is re-formed from the rows that claim to produce it.

Key terms

Checklist
The set of reconstructions that recover every printed total: interest legs, balance chain, row values, blended advance, trigger, headroom, shortfall.
Recomputed letter
The same document with every summary line replaced by the quotient or sum that the rows imply.

Worked example

March totals, recovered once in order

The Halden & Wren sample printed above. Threshold 70 percent of market value, Act/360, no draws.

Interest
$11,343.47

$3,934.07 + $7,409.40.

Closing balance
$1,858,563.47

$1,847,220.00 + $11,343.47.

Book / lending value
$6,032,795 / $3,277,251.25
Blended advance
54.32%

$3,277,251.25 ÷ $6,032,795.

Trigger / headroom
$2,655,090.67 / 55.99%
Shortfall on the printed book
$0.00

Seven recoveries, seven matches. The sample is internally consistent, which is why it can teach the next month.

Check yourself

On the March sample, which printed figure is $1,858,563.47 ÷ 0.70, and which printed figure is $3,277,251.25 ÷ $6,032,795?
