  1. Equity loan

    Unreferenced stub date December 2009 An equity loan is a mortgage loan in which the borrower receives cash . Typically the loan is secured by real estate already owned outright. For example, if a person owns a home worth 100,000, but does not currently have a mortgage on it, they may take an equity loan at 80 Loan to value ratio loan to value LTV or 80,000 in cash in exchange for a mortgage law mortgage on the title. Many lending institutions require the borrower to repay interest only loan only an interest component of the loan each month calculated daily, and compounded to the loan once each month . The borrower can apply any surplus funds to the outstanding loan principal at any time, reducing the amount of interest calculated from that day onward. Some loan products also allow the possibility to redraw cash up to the original LTV, potentially perpetuating the life of the loan beyond the original loan term. The interest rate applied to equity loans is much lower than that applied to unsecured loan s, such as credit card debt. The reasoning behind this is that equity loans involve collateral , and credit card debt does not.

    Public finance Equity of condition in tax law and governmental spending is the economic condition, often arbitrary, that political leaders believe a person should be in after governmental Social engineering political science social engineering and redistribution of wealth . The award or redistribution of wealth to the recipients overrides, substantially, any natural right of the producers of the wealth to keep the fruits of their labor. The award of wealth in a socialist economy may be extensive, with a proscribed level of benefits for food, housing, health, education, recreation, welfare, etcetera and have little or no relation to the citizen s productivity e.g., before tax income . The result, however, is that economic productivity and the standard of living can be lessened in a socialist economy due to disincentive to production. Equity of condition in a mixed economy , such as the United States, can be nebulous and ever changing. Governmental subsidies and tax deductions may be extended for political reasons, and a political leader may never provide comprehensive economic rationale for his particular fiscal policy actions. The cost of the benefits is merely shifted to a discriminated portion of the tax base. Benefits may also be illusory to recipients, because further political manipulation of the tax code by political leaders can nullify the recipients original gains.
