### What is Loan APR Range?&#x20;

The loan APR range is for creators to choose the annual percentage return rate range for deposits and loans. The curve is a piecewise function curve. The minimum APR a creator can choose is 3% and the maximum is 300%

* Deposit APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is the annual rate of return earned on a deposit, without taking into account the effect of compounding interest.&#x20;
* Borrow APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is the annual rate of interest paid on borrow funds, without taking into account the effect of compounding interest.

### How is the APR calculated?&#x20;

The loan APR range can be adjusted by two parameters: *RateCurveConstant and maximum utilization rate*.&#x20;

* Borrow APR = RateCurveConstant÷(1−u), when utilization rate is larger than maximum utilization rate(umax)
* Borrow APR = RateCurveConstant÷(1−umax), learn more details here: [https://docs.definer.org/interest-model ](https://docs.definer.org/v/copy-of-definer.org/interest-model#borrow-rate-model)
* Deposit APR= Borrow APR \* Utilization
