Lösung der Aufgabe
Animadversion on the given table
- Absolutley no fill color
- No subdivisions i.e. loan type (there are only 2 types) or term (also 2 types). The information adjustable/fixed or 15/30 is used too often.
- The table is sorted by points. Maybe it would be better, if it´s sort by rate or term
- The word ‘mortgage’ is used to often in the column ‘lender’, it´s not necessary to repeat it so often
- In the column ‘points’ the numbers should have the same amount of digits before and after the decimal point
- The numbers in the column ‘rate’ should all have 3 digits after the decimal point
- The title “effective September 1, 2003” isn´t clear. Is this a date or something else?
- Due to the use of white spaces the reader scans the table column by column but it would make more sense, if there is less white space between the columns but more white space between the rows. This would make it easier to read the table row by row.
