Definition: Annual Percentage Rate
Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is an expression of the effective interest rate that will be paid on a loan, taking into account one-time fees and standardizing the way this rate is expressed. The APR is likely to differ from the "note rate" or "headline rate" advertised by the lender. The aim of using APR is to calculate a total cost of borrowing which allows easy comparison between loans and lenders.
While there are several acceptable ways to calculate the exact APR, the general process is:
-
Total the included one-time costs and add them to the face amount on the loan
-
Calculate a monthly payment for that amount at the loan's "note rate"
-
Calculate what interest rate would have to be applied to just the face amount of the loan in order to equal the calculated monthly payment in step 2.
APR is intended to make it easier to compare lenders and loan options. In the UK, lenders are required to disclose the APR before the loan (or credit application) is finalised.
APR was introduced under the Consumer Credit Act 1974, to ensure comparability of loans - and is required to be published for all loans........
