Schedule of MBS by Estimated Weighted Average Life Classification The following tables provide a summary of the fair value and amortized cost of the Company’s MBS at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 according to their estimated weighted-average life classifications. The weighted-average lives of the MBS in the tables below are based on lifetime expected prepayment rates using the Company's prepayment assumptions for the Agency MBS and Non-Agency RMBS. The prepayment model considers current yield, forward yield, steepness of the interest rate curve, current mortgage rates, mortgage rates of the outstanding loan, loan age, margin, and volatility.
