Example

  • $20,000 loan, $500 fees, 5% stated rate, 60 months → Monthly $377.42; true APR 6.048%; total cost of credit $2,645.48
  • $250k loan, 6% rate, $6k fees, 360 months → APR ≈ 6.228% (monthly $1,498.88)

Formula

APR solves net proceeds = payment × (1 − (1+r)−n) / r, where net proceeds = loan − fees. Because fees reduce what you actually receive, true APR is always above the stated rate when fees exist. This is the number US lenders must disclose under the Truth in Lending Act.
