How it's calculated

M = P × r / (1 − (1 + r)^−n)

Fees are deducted from the money you receive, which raises the real cost of borrowing.

Questions people ask

What APR is good for a personal loan?
It depends on your credit score. Borrowers with excellent credit see the lowest rates; compare the APR, which includes fees, not just the interest rate.
