Affordability
A household’s ability to sustain payments alongside other obligations and reserves.
Simple definition
A household’s ability to sustain payments alongside other obligations and reserves.
Why it matters
This term changes how inputs, cash flows or results should be interpreted. RATIOXA keeps it explicit so two options are compared on the same basis.
Worked example
A lender maximum is not automatically a personally sustainable budget.
