How is my APR calculated?
Your APR is calculated by considering the following factors:
- All deposits and withdrawals made up to the date of calculation.
- Your current balance, including both cash and bonuses.
- All future payments based on your repayment schedule, including loan principal and earnings.
We then apply the XIRR formula to calculate your APR. For more details on the formula, click here.
While there are different methods available to calculate APR, on Scramble, we use the XIRR formula, which is widely recognized for its accuracy in handling irregular payment schedules and varying amounts.
