A bank offers a corporate client a choice between borrowing cash at 9% per annum and borrowing Bitcoin at -5% per annum. The risk-free interest rate is 3% per annum, and storage costs are 7% per annum. The interest rates on the two loans are expressed with annual compounding. The risk-free interest rate and storage costs are expressed with continuous compounding. Suppose that the price of Bitcoin is $58,000 and the corporate client wants to borrow $1,160,000.   Discuss whether the rate of interest on the Bitcoin loan is too high or too low in relation to the rate of interest on the cash loan.   What is the correct rate of interest for Bitcoin loan?

Cost of Credit

The cost of credit is an extra amount that the borrower has to pay besides the loan amount. These credit charges may vary from loan to loan. The cost of credit includes interest charges, maintenance charges, and arrangement charges. Some of the costs are mandatorily collected by the lender based on the loan amount and tenure of the loan. The cost of credit is also called finance charges of the credit.
