Loans Low Interest

The cost that a lender charges a borrower, shown as a percentage of the main amount borrowed (called the principal), is known as the interest rate. This rate is usually shown yearly and is called the Annual Percentage Rate (APR).

Interest Rates Explained

Interest rates are also used for things like savings accounts and certificates of deposit (CDs). In these cases, a bank or credit union pays the account holder a part of the money they put in. The interest earned in these accounts is often called the Annual Percentage Yield (APY).

Simply put, interest is a fee a borrower pays for using an asset, like money, goods, property, or vehicles. You can think of the interest rate as the "cost of money." The higher the interest rate, the more expensive it is to borrow a certain amount.

How Interest Rates Work in Borrowing

Most times money is lent or borrowed, interest rates are involved. People might take out loans to buy homes, pay for projects, start businesses, or go to school. Businesses also often borrow money to fund big projects and grow, such as buying land, buildings, or equipment. Money borrowed is usually paid back completely by a certain date or in smaller payments over time.

For loans, the interest rate applies to the principal, which is the amount of money you borrowed. This interest rate is both the cost for the borrower and the reward for the lender. Because lenders expect to be paid for allowing others to use their money during the loan period, the total amount you owe back is usually more than the original loan amount. Instead of lending the money, the lender could have invested it and earned money from that investment. Interest is the difference between the final amount you pay back and the original amount you borrowed.

Risk and Interest Rates

When a borrower is seen as low-risk, they usually get a cheaper interest rate. This means they are more likely to pay back the loan on time. However, borrowers who are seen as high-risk pay a higher interest rate, making the loan more expensive for them. This higher rate covers the lender for the greater chance that the loan might not be paid back.

Borrower's Cost of Debt

Interest rates are a cost for the borrower, but they are money earned for the lender. This is called the cost of debt for the borrower. Businesses often compare the costs of borrowing money (debt) with the costs of getting money by selling parts of the company (equity, like dividend payments) to find the cheapest way to get funds. Since most businesses get money through debt or equity, they look at the cost of capital to figure out the best way to structure their finances.
