Debt-to-Income Ratio Debt-to-income ratio measures the amount of debt you have compared to how much money you make. 30% or less: This is the ideal level of debt. 30% to 40%: Still credit worthy. 41% to 49%: Hard to get credit at this level. 50% or more: GET HELP!!!

Calculate Debt-to-Income Ratio Debt: Monthly mortgage or rent ______ Minimum monthly credit card payments ______ Monthly car loan payment ______ Other obligations ______ Total monthly debt payments: ______ $850 $60 $190 $75 $1,175
