How Revolving Credit Facility Costs are Calculated

Understanding Your Revolving Credit Facility Calculator Results
Focus on total cost
Look beyond the headline interest rate and consider combined interest plus commitment fees to grasp the true annual expense. This provides clarity when comparing lender offers.
Test different utilisation
Vary draw amounts to simulate high and low utilisation scenarios. Costs rise with increased usage while commitment fees fall, helping spot the break-even point for maintaining the facility.
Account for extras
Remember the calculator excludes legal, monitoring, or early repayment fees unless manually added. Include these when building a comprehensive funding budget to avoid surprises.
