While calculating debt to income ratio, debt includes all the monthly recurring debt payments and the same is divided by gross income before tax. Therefore debt to payment ratio =

Louise's Income

Louise's gross income - $2,000

+ federal, state and local tax - $400

+ Social security tax - $160

+ contribution to IRA - $80

Gross monthly Income = $2.640

Louise's Debt payments

Visa Credit Payment: $35

Master card Credit payment: $30

Automobile loan payment ; $285

Total monthly debt payment = $350

Debt payment to income ratio = Monthly debt payment / gross pre-tax income

                                           = $350 / $2,640 * 100

                                           = 13.25 %
