How do you calculate borrowing rate?

A finance charge is the dollar amount that the loan will cost you. Lenders generally charge what is known as simple interest. The formula to calculate simple interest is: principal x rate x time = interest (with time being the number of days borrowed divided by the number of days in a year).

How do you calculate lessee’s incremental borrowing rate?

What discount rate should be used to evaluate a lease?

The guidance suggests the discount rate should be the rate implicit in the lease. Rates explicit in lease agreements are rarely accurate or meaningful. If the fair market value of the leased asset is easily determined, you can back into the rate using some Excel wizardry.

Is income-based repayment based on gross or net income?

IBR payments are supposed to be based on your “Adjusted Gross Income” or AGI (a figure from your federal tax return) whenever possible.
