Frequently asked questions

How do you convert a money factor to APR?

Multiply the money factor by 2,400. A money factor of 0.0025 equals a 6% APR, which makes lease finance charges easier to compare with a loan.

Why is the money factor written so small?

Leases quote the rate as a tiny decimal instead of a percentage, which can hide how expensive it is. Converting to APR reveals the true cost of the lease financing.
