Is there a standard calculation required when analyzing Student Loans in deferment? I have seen everything from 1% to 5% of the outstanding balance. I don't see that the guidance gives a clear answer.

I haven't researched this in a while but I don't recall there being anything specific about this in the reg. We use 1% of the principal balance to calculate student loan payments.

Fannie Mae uses 1% of the outstanding balance as the monthly payment, so that is what we use as well.
