Can I calculate the dealer reserve (interest buy-down) on a 0% loan?
Yes. You can discount a 0% loan using the dealer reserve routines by either the difference in charges or present value method. If you’re a lender, you can use the new APRChecker routine in the 627B LeaseMaker to check and discount 0% loans. This allows a dealer to offer 0% loans through any lender willing to accept an interest buy-down payment. Our APRChecker PC program has also been updated to check and discount 0% loans.
