A fridge costs G$199,999 cash, or G$2,895.12 a week for three years on hire purchase. What am I really paying?
On that plan you pay G$2,895.12 a week for 156 weeks, which is G$451,638.72 in total against a cash price of G$199,999. The credit charge is G$251,639.72, or 125.82% more than cash. The true yearly rate works out to an APR of 64.16%, and 89.21% a year once the weekly compounding is counted. That is about G$12,545.52 a month for 36 months.
