General Comment

1. The APR noted on the TIL always provided a good measure to compare different
loan options---how does the proposed rule incorporate this form? It appears that
the new propsed forms could show four equal loans with four differents APRs.
2. How will a federal or state bank show how much it is making on a loan; it
earns more than what appears on its GFEs.
3. In a purchase, where the seller pays some closing costs, how will the seller
paying closing costs affect the completion of the GFE?
