The formula to calculate the Cost of Funds (COF) is:
\[ COF = B \times \left( \frac{IR}{100} \right) \times T \]
Where:
Cost of funds describes the total interest expense paid by a company that borrows money in order to fund projects or other aspects of the business. The costs of funds are dependent on the borrowed amount, interest rate, and term of the borrowed funds.
Let's say the borrowed amount (B) is $10,000, the interest rate (IR) is 5%, and the time period (T) is 1 year. Using the formula:
\[ COF = 10000 \times \left( \frac{5}{100} \right) \times 1 = 500 \, \text{dollars} \]
So, the cost of funds (COF) is $500.
Definition: The cost of funds in banking is the interest rate that banks must pay to acquire funds.
Formula: \( COF = \frac{IE}{ABL} \)
Example: \( COF = \frac{50000}{1000000} \)
Definition: The cost of funds formula calculates the average cost incurred by a bank to fund its operations.
Formula: \( COF = \frac{IE}{AIL} \)
Example: \( COF = \frac{60000}{1200000} \)
Definition: The average cost of funds formula calculates the average interest rate paid by a bank on its liabilities.
Formula: \( ACOF = \frac{TIE}{TAL} \)
Example: \( ACOF = \frac{70000}{1400000} \)
Definition: A mutual fund cost calculator helps estimate the fees and expenses associated with investing in mutual funds.
Formula: \( MFC = IA \times \left(1 - \frac{ER}{100}\right) \)
Example: \( MFC = 10000 \times \left(1 - \frac{2}{100}\right) \)
Definition: A fund of funds fees calculator estimates the total fees incurred when investing in a fund of funds.
Formula: \( FFC = IA \times \left(1 - \frac{TER}{100}\right) \)
Example: \( FFC = 15000 \times \left(1 - \frac{3}{100}\right) \)
Definition: A funds to complete calculator helps determine the total amount of funds required to complete a project or investment.
Formula: \( FTC = TC - CA \)
Example: \( FTC = 200000 - 50000 \)
