APR and EAR Differences and Calculation (Intermediate Accounting I #7)

APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is a reflection of the percent owed in simple interest at the end of the year. When compounding is involved, the APR can understate the true effective APR (this term is synonymous with EAR) rate or the EAR (Effective Annual Rate). We'll go about calculating both rates in this tutorial. By the end I'll summarize it all and show the effect of compounding on APR rates (dramatically affects the rates).

[@bigjayfitness]

you know something is wrong with the school system (university) when 2 professors over complicate such a simple idea. and I go to one of the "best" universities in Canada. Such a shame. Thank you for the video.

This is Joker's principle. "When you're good at something never do it for free." They define terms in an esoteric fashion such that you can easily understand only if finance is part of your everyday Lingo and for others, it is not quite evident at first glance.

Where do you go?

[@kenshoheng4472]

I go to U of T and just went through a whole chapter with confusing examples and numbers only to realize this 8 minute video cleared up everything

[@m051f]

Great video, the general formula is EAR=(1+APR/T)^T - 1. Where T is simply the compounding rate, which in this example was 365. Hope this helps others.

[@nickthompson1812]

Yep. Divide APR by periods, add 1, take to the power the periods, subtract 1. Easy peezy once you’ve got it down.

[@kendramolyet6013]

The chart at the end really helped! Thank you!!

[@barrierbreaker1717]

Thanks so much for the video! Such oversimplifying!

[@NotepirateDave]

No problem. Keep watching ✌️

[@mannys7774]

totally made sense.

[@johanp162]

You need to be careful when using the term APR. It is often confused with APRC which is the annual percent rate of cost which is defined as the interest level (nominal) that equates the present value of all drawdowns with the present value of all repayments (the present value cashflow=0). This is the official definition used by both FCA and EU regulations. It is not in itself a complex thing to explain but it takes a bit more math and is often misunderstood.

[@GUDDAisHere]

don't banks use 360 days ?

[@MrSupernova111]

xGUDDAx Its up to the bank. They can even use "e" which is perpetual interest. That's why they call them banksters.
