Mnemonic: INJORI

Use this field to indicate whether the selected insurance policy is for joint persons or an individual. "C-Co-borrower" is another choice, which indicates a co-borrower purchased the involuntary unemployment (IUI) insurance policy.

Original Premium

Mnemonic: INOBAL

Use this field to indicate the add-on insurance premium amount on the customer loan account. This field is used in calculating the Earned and Unearned premium amounts (see below).

When a loan is originated and an insurance policy purchased, the system divides this amount by the insurance policy term and adds the amount to the P/I Constant. For example, if the account owner purchased GAP insurance of $240 (with a policy term of 12 months) at the time the loan was originated, the system would divide 240 by 12 to get $20. If the P/I Constant was $200, the system would add $20/month until the insurance term was over, making the P/I Constant $220 per month.

Mnemonic: INPLCY

Use this field to indicate the policy or certificate number for the selected insurance policy.

Earned Premium

Mnemonic: INWAAMT

In order for this field to properly calculate, the following fields in this field group must contain information: Original Premium, Policy Term, Policy Effective Date, and Amortization Method.

Amortization Method

When the Payoff transaction is processed, this amount will be sent as a debit to the Unearned Interest (Payoff/Force Place Ins) General Ledger account set up on the GOLD Services > General Ledger > GL Account By Loan Type screen. Note: This field will only appear on the Payoff screen if information is entered in the Description field above.

This is a required field when calculating a refund based on the Amortization Method.

Min Refund Amount

Mnemonic: INMINR

Use this field to indicate the minimum refund amount your institution is required to issue the customer if the loan pays off early or is canceled. For example, if "10" is entered in this field, and the customer is due $5 for a refund, no refund is issued to the customer.

The amount in the Unearned Premium field above is compared against the amount in this field to determine whether the refund is under the minimum refund amount regulated by state law. If the Unearned Premium is equal to or above the value in this field, it is refunded to the customer. If the Unearned Premium is below the the value in this field, the Unearned Premium amount is then included in the Earned Premium (see above).
