Formula

Find APR such that PV(Payments at APR) = Loan Amount − Upfront Fees
Where:
  • PV = present value of payments
  • Upfront Fees = points and eligible fees included in APR
APR is most comparable when you keep the loan for most of the term; if you plan to refinance soon, compare break-even months too.
