The Cost of Credit

Question 8 • Personal Finance - EL3403

Which would be considered closed-end credit situations? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
Jason bought a used car and got a loan from his credit union.
B
The Overtons bought a new home and mortgaged it for 30 years.
C
Samantha got her first credit card at age 18 with a credit limit of $300.
D
Tammy borrowed $40,000 in school loans to be paid back in 5 years.
E
Tim always pays his credit card balance in full each month.

Explanation

Closed-end credit is a loan for a specific amount that is repaid over a set period. Jason’s car loan, the Overtons’ 30-year mortgage, and Tammy’s school loans each have a defined loan amount and repayment term. A credit card is revolving, open-end credit, whether or not Samantha uses it or Tim pays his balance in full each month.
