How to set DisplayFormat on a Model property

Question

I have set the [DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:C}")] on my field Deductible but it still not applying the display format. Can anyone help. TY

CSHTML.CS

public class Contact
{
    public string FirstName { get; set; }
    public string LastName { get; set; }
    public string Email { get; set; }
    public DateTime HireDate { get; set; }
    //public List<Phone> PhoneNumbers { get; set; }
    //public
    //Address Address { get; set; }

    [DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:C}")]
    public decimal Deductible { get; set; }

CSHTML:

@for (var i = 0; i < Model.Contacts.Count; i++)
            <div class="col-sm">
                <label asp-for="@Model.Contacts[i].Deductible" class="control-label"> </label>
                <input asp-for="@Model.Contacts[i].Deductible class=" control-label" value="@Model.Contacts[i].Deductible">
            </div>

[DisplayFormat] is respected when you use DisplayFor() and EditorFor

Try:

 @Html.DisplayFor(model => model.Contacts[i].Deductible)

OR

<input asp-for="@Model.Contacts[i].Deductible class=" control-label" value="@Model.Contacts[i].Deductible.ToString("C2")">

Result:

Or

[DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:C}", ApplyFormatInEditMode = true)]

and use

@Html.EditorFor(model => model.Contacts[i].Deductible)

Update If you use

[DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:C}")]

and

@Html.EditorFor(model => model.Contacts[i].Deductible)
