Answer: $151,576

Explanation:

Affordable home purchase price = Affordable mortgage loan / (1 - Down payment percentage)

       Affordable mortgage loan = Affordable monthly payment * 1,000 / Factor

             Affordable monthly payment = Monthly income * 33% - Property taxes

             = (60,000 / 12) * 33% - 500

             = $1,150

       Affordable mortgage loan = 1,150 * 1,000 / 8.43

       = $136,418

Affordable home purchase price = 136,418 / ( 1 - 10%)

= $151,576
