The Mathematical Formula & Variables

Iteratively solve for APR equating net received funds to monthly payment stream

Step-by-Step Worked Example

Scenario: $200,000 loan at 6.5% for 30 years with $4,000 in upfront fees.

  1. Monthly payment based on $200k = $1,264.14.
  2. Borrower only receives $196,000 cash in hand.
  3. The effective rate solving $196k = 6.69% APR.

Result: 6.69% True APR

Frequently Asked Questions
