1. Single Payment Loans:
Specified time period, usually less than 1 year.
Payment due in full at maturity.
Payment includes principal and interest.
May require collateral.
Loan rollover may be possible if borrower is unable to repay in time.
7-10

Calculating Finance Charges on Single-Payment Loans:
Simple Interest Method–Calculated on the outstanding balance.
Discount Method– Interest calculated on the principal,
– Then subtracted from loan amount; remainder goes to borrower.
– Finance charges are paid in advance.
–APR will be higher than stated interest rate.
7-11

Example:
Calculate the finance charges and APR on a $1000 loan for 2 years at
an annual interest rate of 12%. (Assume interest is the only
finance charge.)
7-12
Copyright 2002 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
Using the Simple Interest Method:Interest = Principal x Rate x Time
= $1000 x .12 x 2Finance Charges = $240
Borrower receives loan amount ($1000) now—
And pays back loan amount plus finance charges ($1000 + $240) at end of time period.
Most consumer friendly method—APR will be the same as the stated rate.
7-13
Copyright 2002 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
Using the Simple Interest Method:
Annual Percentage Rate =
average annual finance charge
average loan balance outstanding
APR = ($240 2)
$1000
= $120
$1000
= .12 =12%
7-14
Copyright 2002 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
Using the Discount Method:Interest = Principal x Rate x Time
= $1000 x .12 x 2Finance Charges = $240
Finance charges calculated the same way as in simple interest method—
But are then subtracted from loan amount ($1000 – $240).
Borrower receives the remainder ($760) now and pays back the loan amount ($1000) at end of time period.
7-15

Using the Discount Method:
Annual Percentage Rate =
average annual finance charge
average loan balance outstanding
APR = ($240 2)
($1000 – $240)
= $120
$760
= .158 =15.8%

Calculating Finance Charges on Installment Loans:

(declining) balance each period.
Add-On Method–Finance charges calculated on
original loan balance,
– And then added to principal.
–Costly form of consumer credit!

Using the Simple Interest Method: Simple interest is figured on the
outstanding loan balance each period.
Each payment causes principal to decrease.
Each subsequent payment, then, will incur a lower finance charge, so
More of the next payment will go towards repaying the principal.
7-23

Simple Interest Method Continued: This is the method financial calculators
use when solving for interest.
When simple interest method is used, whether for single payment or installment loans,
Stated Rate = APR
In this example, APR = 12% and rate per period = 12% 12
= 1% per month

$88.85 x 12 = $1,066.20
Loan amount = – 1,000.00
Interest paid = $ 66.20
Total amount paid over the 12-month period:
7-25

Using the Add-On Method: Calculate finance charges on the
original loan amount:
$1000 x .12 x 1 = $120
Add these charges to principal:
$120 + $1000 = $1,120
Divide this amount by the number of periods to arrive at payment:
$1,120 12 = $93.33

Add-On Method Continued: Use financial calculator to figure APR for
the Add-On Method using the payment just determined and solve for interest:
