Assume firm needs $10,000. Face amount of loan = $10,000/(1 â’ 0.11 â’ 0.20) = $14,492.75. Discount interest = 0.11($14,492.75) =$1,594.20. Compensating balance = 0.20($14,492.75) = $2,898.55. With a financial calculator, enter N = 1, PV = 10,000, PMT= 0, FV = â’11,594.20, and solve for I/YR = 15.94%.
