Question 11 • Financial Math

Which definition best describes a loan's annual percentage rate (APR)?

Answer
A
the original sum of money borrowed for a loan or the amount still owed on a loan
B
the additional costs associated with a loan's origination, late payments, or prepayment
C
a type of short-term borrowing where a lender provides high-interest credit based on a borrower’s income
D
a comprehensive measure of a loan's cost that includes all fees and interest

Explanation

The annual percentage rate (APR) measures the yearly cost of borrowing, combining the interest rate with certain loan fees. That makes it a more comprehensive measure than the interest rate alone. Choice D, “a comprehensive measure of a loan's cost that includes all fees and interest,” is the best definition.
