How do people calculate per diem interest on consumer loans?
all of our loans use a 360/360 schedule.
In the past we have used the following calculation to determine per diem:
loan amount x interest rate / 360 = x # of days
I have also seen:
loan amount x interest rate / 12 / number of days
Each of these gives different per diem amounts.
If we are using a 360/360, should we be using 365 for calculating the per diem interest amount?
