Let me start by apologizing in advance as I am sure someone has asked this before but I can't seem to find it...
I am trying to calculate the effective rate on a loan after paying a commission given that:
Loan amount $10,000
Loan Term 60 Mo
Loan Contract Rate 5.00%
Loan Payment $188.71
Commission Rate 1.00%
Commission Amount $100.00
Total Interest $1,322.74
Net interest/income after commission $1,222.74
Through trial and error I was able to determine it is 4.635% (i.e., all things being equal a rate of 4.635% without a commission yields the same net income as 5.00% loan with a 1.00% commission)
I thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
