How it is calculated

Bank (commercial) discount is charged on the face value, true discount on the present value, so at the same rate the bank method takes more. Banks usually use the bank method when discounting bills. The CBRT rediscount rate is the usual reference for commercial paper.

FormulaDış: P = N × (1 − r × g ÷ 365) · İç: P = N ÷ (1 + r × g ÷ 365)N: face value · r: yearly discount rate · g: days to maturity. The CBRT rediscount rate is currently 38.75%.

Example
