Step-by-Step Guide

Schritt 1: Geben Sie den Betrag ein, um den Sie Ihr Konto überziehen (z.B. 2.000 EUR). Schritt 2: Tragen Sie den Dispozins Ihrer Bank ein (z.B. 12,5 %). Schritt 3: Geben Sie die Dauer der Überziehung in Tagen ein (z.B. 30 days). Der Rechner calculates die Zinskosten nach der Formel: Betrag × interest rate × days / 365. Zusätzlich wird ein Vergleich mit einem Ratenkredit (z.B. 6,9 % eff. Jahreszins) angezeigt. Beispiel: 2.000 EUR Dispo für 30 days zu 12,5 % costs ca. 20,55 EUR interest. Bei Dauernutzung über 12 Monate wären es ca. 250 EUR — ein Ratenkredit würde nur ca. 138 EUR costs.

Calculation Example

Bei 2.000 EUR Überziehung, 12,5 % Dispozins und 30 Tagen: 2.000 × 0,125 × 30/365 = 20,55 EUR Zinskosten. Ein Ratenkredit (6,9 %) für den gleichen Betrag und Zeitraum: 11,34 EUR.
