INPUT AND EVIDENCE LEDGER

Declare the evidence and assumptions first.

Field	Value	Origin
Planning principal	₩300,000,000	User scenario
Planning term	30 years	User scenario; not an HF quote
Stress band	4.90% to 5.20%	HF September endpoint range
Purpose	Budget resilience	Editorial calculation

DECISION READING

The narrow conclusion supported here.

A rate input should be a range, not a single reassuring number. In this controlled model, 0.30 percentage points consumes about ₩55K of monthly room before any management, tax, or repair cost changes.

SENSITIVITY

Change one input before trusting the result.

The absolute gap grows with the principal.
A shorter term changes both payment and cumulative interest.
The actual 30-year product rate must be checked directly; these are stress endpoints.

BOUNDARIES

Stop where the evidence stops.

The range is an analytical band derived from published endpoint rates.
It is not a 30-year HF rate quotation.
Borrower-specific charges and eligibility are excluded.

HUMAN ACCOUNTABILITY + AI USE RECORD

The owner is accountable; the technical checks were AI-assisted.

The TOOOLBOX site owner authorized the publication scope and remains the correction contact. AI assistance was used for drafting, implementation, arithmetic recomputation, and source-link checks. This record does not claim line-by-line human fact-checking or licensed professional review.

Human fact-check: No separate human fact-check recorded
AI use: Drafting, code, arithmetic, and link checks

Separated official source values from the user-selected 30-year term.
Recomputed both 360-payment schedules and the difference.
Added repeated wording that prevents the stress band from reading as a quote.
