    =RATE(360,PMT(5.75%/12,360,56000),56000-361.22)*12
    gives me 5.81%

    Re: How do I caluclate an Annual Percentage Rate in Excel?

    GREAT help. Can you help with TWO interest only loans?

    First -- $500,000 loan for 2 years (24 months) at 9.5% (3,958.33/mo). Fees
    of $11,090.56 are deducted from loan amount for a net funding of 488,909.44
    and include a 2 point origination fee ($10,000); prepaid interest from
    6/23-6/30 of $1,055.56; and a $35 wire fee. Is prepaid interest is
    considered a fee for this calculation???

    Second - $1,250,000 loan for 3 years (36 months). First 2 years at 9.5%
    (9,895.83/mo); 3rd year at 10.5% (10,937.50/mo). Fees of $54,479.44 are
    deducted from loan amount for a net funding of $1,195,520.56 and include a
    4.25% origination fee (53,125); prepaid interest from 6/27-6/30 ($1,319.44);
    and a $35 wire fee. Again, is prepaid interest considered a fee for this
    calculation?

    Re: How do I caluclate an Annual Percentage Rate in Excel?

    GREAT help. Can you help with TWO interest only loans?

    First -- $500,000 loan for 2 years (24 months) at 9.5% (3,958.33/mo). Fees
    of $11,090.56 are deducted from loan amount for a net funding of 488,909.44
    and include a 2 point origination fee ($10,000); prepaid interest from
    6/23-6/30 of $1,055.56; and a $35 wire fee. Is prepaid interest is
    considered a fee for this calculation???

    Second - $1,250,000 loan for 3 years (36 months). First 2 years at 9.5%
    (9,895.83/mo); 3rd year at 10.5% (10,937.50/mo). Fees of $54,479.44 are
    deducted from loan amount for a net funding of $1,195,520.56 and include a
    4.25% origination fee (53,125); prepaid interest from 6/27-6/30 ($1,319.44);
    and a $35 wire fee. Again, is prepaid interest considered a fee for this
    calculation?

    Re: How do I caluclate an Annual Percentage Rate in Excel?

    GREAT help. Can you help with TWO interest only loans?

    First -- $500,000 loan for 2 years (24 months) at 9.5% (3,958.33/mo). Fees
    of $11,090.56 are deducted from loan amount for a net funding of 488,909.44
    and include a 2 point origination fee ($10,000); prepaid interest from
    6/23-6/30 of $1,055.56; and a $35 wire fee. Is prepaid interest is
    considered a fee for this calculation???

    Second - $1,250,000 loan for 3 years (36 months). First 2 years at 9.5%
    (9,895.83/mo); 3rd year at 10.5% (10,937.50/mo). Fees of $54,479.44 are
    deducted from loan amount for a net funding of $1,195,520.56 and include a
    4.25% origination fee (53,125); prepaid interest from 6/27-6/30 ($1,319.44);
    and a $35 wire fee. Again, is prepaid interest considered a fee for this
    calculation?

    Re: How do I caluclate an Annual Percentage Rate in Excel?

    GREAT help. Can you help with TWO interest only loans?

    First -- $500,000 loan for 2 years (24 months) at 9.5% (3,958.33/mo). Fees
    of $11,090.56 are deducted from loan amount for a net funding of 488,909.44
    and include a 2 point origination fee ($10,000); prepaid interest from
    6/23-6/30 of $1,055.56; and a $35 wire fee. Is prepaid interest is
    considered a fee for this calculation???

    Second - $1,250,000 loan for 3 years (36 months). First 2 years at 9.5%
    (9,895.83/mo); 3rd year at 10.5% (10,937.50/mo). Fees of $54,479.44 are
    deducted from loan amount for a net funding of $1,195,520.56 and include a
    4.25% origination fee (53,125); prepaid interest from 6/27-6/30 ($1,319.44);
    and a $35 wire fee. Again, is prepaid interest considered a fee for this
    calculation?

    Re: How do I caluclate an Annual Percentage Rate in Excel?

    GREAT help. Can you help with TWO interest only loans?

    First -- $500,000 loan for 2 years (24 months) at 9.5% (3,958.33/mo). Fees
    of $11,090.56 are deducted from loan amount for a net funding of 488,909.44
    and include a 2 point origination fee ($10,000); prepaid interest from
    6/23-6/30 of $1,055.56; and a $35 wire fee. Is prepaid interest is
    considered a fee for this calculation???

    Second - $1,250,000 loan for 3 years (36 months). First 2 years at 9.5%
    (9,895.83/mo); 3rd year at 10.5% (10,937.50/mo). Fees of $54,479.44 are
    deducted from loan amount for a net funding of $1,195,520.56 and include a
    4.25% origination fee (53,125); prepaid interest from 6/27-6/30 ($1,319.44);
    and a $35 wire fee. Again, is prepaid interest considered a fee for this

    Re: How do I caluclate an Annual Percentage Rate in Excel?

    GREAT help. Can you help with TWO interest only loans?

    First -- $500,000 loan for 2 years (24 months) at 9.5% (3,958.33/mo). Fees
    of $11,090.56 are deducted from loan amount for a net funding of 488,909.44
    and include a 2 point origination fee ($10,000); prepaid interest from
    6/23-6/30 of $1,055.56; and a $35 wire fee. Is prepaid interest is
    considered a fee for this calculation???

    Second - $1,250,000 loan for 3 years (36 months). First 2 years at 9.5%
    (9,895.83/mo); 3rd year at 10.5% (10,937.50/mo). Fees of $54,479.44 are
    deducted from loan amount for a net funding of $1,195,520.56 and include a
    4.25% origination fee (53,125); prepaid interest from 6/27-6/30 ($1,319.44);
    and a $35 wire fee. Again, is prepaid interest considered a fee for this
    calculation?
