The aim of this note is to measure the impact of the extra-costs payment on the Effective Annual interest Rate (EAR) of a consumer instalment credit. We show that EAR can be approximated by augmenting the credit rate with an extra-costs rate addendum. This latter addendum is a function of the Macaulay duration of the extra-costs payments.

Abstract

The aim of this note is to measure the impact of the extra-costs payment on the Effective Annual interest Rate (EAR) of a consumer instalment credit. We show that EAR can be approximated by augmenting the credit rate with an extra-costs rate addendum. This latter addendum is a function of the Macaulay duration of the extra-costs payments.
