Rate Markup

Definition

The difference between the lender's buy rate and the final contract rate offered to the customer.

Why It Matters

Rate markup generates finance reserve, which is a significant profit center for F&I departments. Understanding markup limits and compliance requirements is critical for ethical F&I management.

Examples

If the buy rate is 5.0% and the contract rate is 6.5%, the rate markup is 1.5%
Rate markup must comply with state and federal regulations to avoid legal issues

Related Terms

Finance Reserve
